This easy worksheet eases first graders into clock vocabulary before any times appear. Part A traces the dotted words clock, hour, half, hand, time, and minute so the language sticks alongside the picture of an analog clock. Part B fills four blanks: there are 12 numbers on a clock face, the minute hand on 12 means the time is on the hour, and when the minute hand points to 6 we say half past. Part C wraps with three true or false checks, including 'a clock has two hands' and 'the short hand on a clock tells the hour.'
Use this sheet on the very first day of a time unit so vocabulary lands before reading actual clock faces.
