STEP 1

Tell children a clock has three moving rectangular shaped hands. Show children the image below and point out the three types of hands.

• The second hand is the fastest and often the thinnest, like a fast, sleek rabbit.
• The hour hand is the shortest and slowest, like a slow turtle.
• The minute hand is faster than the hour hand, but slower than the second hand.

Step 2

• Have children identify the hour, minute, and second hands on the clocks below.
