This worksheet is designed to help students practice
telling time to the half hour by drawing the correct hour and minute hands on analog clocks. Each clock shows a time ending in
:30, meaning it's exactly half past the hour.

🔍 How to Solve:
For each time given (e.g., 7:30), you need to draw:
- The
minute hand pointing at
6 (since 30 minutes = halfway around the clock, which is at the 6).
- The
hour hand halfway between the current hour and the next hour.
For example:
- At
7:30, the hour hand is halfway between
7 and
8.
- The minute hand points directly at
6.

You would draw:
- A long hand (minute) pointing to
6 on all clocks.
- A short hand (hour) positioned
halfway between the hour number and the next one, based on the time shown below each clock.
