How Many Hands Does a Clock Have?
- A clock has three hands that help us tell time.
- Each hand moves at different speeds and shows different things.
- The short hand tells the hour, the long hand shows the minutes, and the thinnest hand is the second hand that ticks away the seconds.
Examples:
- Hour hand:
- The hour hand moves slowly around the clock, pointing to numbers like 1, 2, or 3.
- It helps us know what hour it is.
- Minute hand:
- The minute hand moves faster than the hour hand and helps us count minutes.
- When it points to 12, that means a new hour is starting.
- Second hand:
- The second hand is very thin and moves quickly around the clock.
- It shows how many seconds have passed.
