About this resource
Description
Reading the minute hand is the step that turns a child from telling time to the hour into telling time to the minute. This time by five minutes worksheet gives second graders focused practice with that one skill: every clock shows only the long minute hand, so students learn to count by fives from the 12 and name the minutes past the hour without the hour hand getting in the way.
About This Worksheet
In Part A, students look at six clocks, count by fives around the dial, and write the number of minutes in the box. In Part B, the minutes are printed in the box and students draw the minute hand on three blank clocks. Every clock face is drawn to scale with all sixty minute marks, so the hand always lands exactly on a five-minute mark. Use this time by five minutes worksheet as a warm-up, a math center, homework, or a quick check after a lesson on the clock.
What’s Included
- One page of minute-hand practice with nine clocks
- Part A: read the minute hand and write the minutes
- Part B: draw the minute hand to match the minutes
- An answer key for fast grading
Why It Helps Kids
- It isolates the minute hand, so children master counting by fives on the clock before they combine both hands.
- It works in both directions, reading a clock and showing a time, which builds real understanding instead of guessing.
- It connects skip counting, a skill kids already know, to a new real-world use.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before the page, have children point to each number on a real clock and count by fives out loud. After Part A, ask them which clock shows the most minutes and how they know. Pair this 2nd grade telling time worksheet with a sheet that uses both hands so students can put the hour and the minutes together.
