COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you choose a page

Which clock worksheet should a beginner choose?

Begin with whole and half hours. Practice telling the two hands apart before reading smaller minute intervals.

When should a child try five-minute intervals?

Try them after whole and half hours and counting by fives are comfortable. One numbered step of the minute hand equals five minutes.
