Print by grade

  1. 1st grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Telling time worksheets for first grade show large analog clock faces, each with a writing line underneath. Every clock lands on an hour or a half hour, so your child finds the short hour hand, checks the long hand, and writes 4:00 or 4:30. A draw-the-hands version flips the task: the time is printed and your child draws both hands.

  2. 2nd grade Core grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    Second grade telling time worksheets move to the five-minute marks: each analog clock shows a time like 7:05 or 3:40. Reading these means skip counting by fives around the face. Every numeral stands for five minutes. The draw-the-hands version works the same times in reverse.

  3. 3rd grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Third grade telling time worksheets use the full clock: any minute is fair game. A clock might read 11:42 or 6:17, so the minute hand sits between numerals and the count runs by fives plus a few extra ticks. On the draw-the-hands version your child draws those times instead.
