Telling time is a fundamental skill that involves expressing hours and minutes using numbers and words. It is essential for daily life, including scheduling appointments, planning meals, and coordinating activities. To tell time, you need to understand the concept of a clock, which is divided into 12 hours on an analog clock and 24 hours on a digital clock. You can tell time by reading the hour and minute hands on an analog clock or by looking at the digital display on a digital clock. Practicing telling time regularly can help improve your accuracy and confidence.
