Worksheets to help students

Telling time to the nearest 5 minutes is an essential skill for students.

Start by reviewing the clock face and ensuring students understand the numbers around the clock, the hour hand, and the minute hand.
Emphasize that each hour on the clock is divided into 60 minutes, and the minute hand moves in increments of 5 minutes for each minute mark.
Explain that when telling time to the nearest 5 minutes, the minute hand will point to one of the 12 number positions on the clock face.
Provide examples of clock faces showing different times to the nearest 5 minutes. Practice identifying and reading these times.
Example:
If the minute hand points to the 3, it represents 15 minutes.
If the minute hand points to the 6, it represents 30 minutes.
If the minute hand points to the 9, it represents 45 minutes.
Utilize visual aids such as large classroom clocks or digital resources to illustrate and practice telling time to the nearest 5 minutes.
