Analogue Time

I am going to try and teach you how to tell analogue time. The way I  learnt how to tell analog
time was by watching others it is so easy to learn by watching people tell the time but there some
people that can’t learn that way. They learn to tell time by people explaining it to them and that is
what I’m going to try and do.

The first thing you need to know  is how the two or three hands work. The longest hand is the long
the minute hand. Then there's the little hand it shows the hour so if it is on three and the long hand
is at the twelve then it is three o'clock and there are some clocks with the second hand it is a long
hand also but this one goes faster than the minute it counts in seconds.

There are the numerals or numbers. Each big number is 5 minutes so if the minute  hand is on the
12 then the time is ethier three o’clock like that and if the minute hand is on the 1 then it’s 3:05 then
you just go like that.

So put all of these skills together and  you have the basics of telling analogue time.  Then there's t
he one minute lines. If you look closer to a clock you can see the minute lines and those are one
minutes it is basic really so if the minute hand is on one of the little lines it is like 13 minutes past 12.
That’s how easy it is to tell analogue time.

This is what I have been doing for the past two weeks for wrighting it is the most best thing I have done in a very long time and it was about analogue time. We wrote about it I think because some people rely too much on the digital time.
