Clocks

There are 3 kinds of ways or strategies you can use to explain time, 24 hours, digital and analogue.

In 24 hours after 1:00 PM it starts with 13 and goes up to 23.  In the 24 hour clock there is AM and PM, the hour comes first, then the minutes, and next the seconds.  Using AM looks like: 9:30, so it often starts with 0.

In Analogue if the minute hand points at 6 it means 30 minutes has passed, if it is pointing at the 9 45 minutes has passed, analogue can tell how many minutes has or have passed.

In digital time we often read in o'clock, it is also easy to read digital time because we can just read through the numbers!
