How can time be recorded? 

What are analog and digital clocks? 

How can time to the hour be read and written? 

How can time to the half hour be read and written? 

Tell time to the hour and half hour using analog clocks.

Tell time to the hour and half hour using digital clocks.

Distinguish between the hour hand and the minute hand.

Explain that when the hour hand is between two numbers the hour still is the preceding hour.

Use the vocabulary terms hour, minute, thirty, and half past to tell time. 

Represent a specific time by drawing hands on an analog clock face.

Time can be determined by looking at both analog or digital clocks.

The short hand on an analog clock represents the hour and the long hand represents the minute.

An hour is the same as 60 minutes. 

When the hour hand is between two numbers the hour is still the preceding hour, e.g., at 12:30 the hour hand will be halfway between 12 and 1 and the hour is still 12 since it is not yet completely at the 1.

Time to the hour can be shown on an analog clock or a digital clock and can read as “_o’clock” and be written in two ways: _o’clock or _:00. 

Time can be given to the half hour (30 minutes after the hour) and can be read in two ways: “_thirty” or “half past _” and can be written _:30.
