How Many Hands Does a Clock Have?
- A clock has three hands that help us tell time.
- Each hand points to different numbers on the clock face.
- These hands are the hour hand, the minute hand, and the second hand.
Examples:
- Hour Hand:
- The hour hand is the shortest hand.
- It tells us what hour it is.
- If it's pointing at 3, it's 3 o'clock!
- Minute Hand:
- The minute hand is longer than the hour hand.
- It tells us how many minutes past the hour it is.
- If it's pointing at the 6, that means 30 minutes past!
- Second Hand:
- The second hand moves the fastest and is usually thin and long.
- It helps us know how many seconds are passing.
- If it's moving, you can count "1, 2, 3" to see how fast time goes!
