Tell Time in 5-minutes intervals

Have you ever seen someone pull a rabbit out of a hat? Wait a minute, Pepper! This is not just a normal magic show. Our friends are here to learn how to tell time in 5-minute intervals!

Abracadabra! Pepper is ready to teach us her skills.

Are you ready to tell time in 5-minute intervals? Let’s go, Pepper!

Pepper is ready to show off her skip counting by 5 skills. Can you help her?

Here she goooooeeesss!

I think Pepper went a little too fast because she is such an expert. Let’s slow it down!

Let’s look again at what you already know about the minute hand on the clock. When the minute hand is on 12, we are at o’clock or zero minutes. Can you count by 5s all the way to 15 minutes? zero, 5, 10, 15!

Shazam! We just skip counted in 5- minute intervals to a quarter past the hour.

You are doing so well! Let’s keep going. When the minute hand is on the 3, we can keep counting by 5s all the way to the 6: 15, 20, 25, 30!

Shazam! We just counted from a quarter past the hour to half past the hour.

Let’s count from 30 minutes to 45 minutes: 30, 35, 40, 45!

Shazam! We just counted from half past the hour to quarter to the hour.

Let’s finish all of the intervals from 45 minutes to an hour. 45, 50, 55, 60 or o’clock!

Shazam, you just skip counted by fives all the way around the clock!

You definitely have the magic. Let’s practice with Pepper!
