Common Mistakes to Watch For

• Mixing up the hour hand and the minute hand. First graders often read 12:03 instead of 3:00 because they look at the long hand pointing to 12 and say 'twelve' for the hour.
• Reading half past times as the wrong hour. At 4:30 the hour hand sits between 4 and 5, and many children write 5:30 because the hand looks closer to the next number.
• Forgetting that 'o'clock' means the minute hand points to 12. Students sometimes write 7:06 or 7:30 for 'seven o'clock' because they don't yet trust the rule that o'clock always means :00.
