Reading a Clock
Let's explore!
We know how to count by fives and we can use it when we are trying to
tell the time. Start with the number 12, which is the 0'clock, or zero.
1 is 5, 2 is 10, 3 is 15, 4 is 20, 5 is 25, 6 is 30, 7 is, 35, 8 is 40, 9 is 45, 10 is 50, 11 is 55, and 12 is a new hour!
**QUESTION**
What about those lines in between all the numbers?
It takes 5 second to count from one big number to the next one. Try it
out by starting from the number on the clock and counting to the next
one.
What time does that clock say?
The short hand is on the 10 and the long hand is on the 10.
The hour is 10 and the minutes are 10.
How do we write it?
10:10
