What time is it? It is time to meet Jen’s Ten. Jen calls her clock “Jen’s Ten” because it only shows time in ten-minute intervals. Before we practice reading Jen’s Ten let’s count by 10’s to prepare. Ready?

10…20…30…40…50…60

Terrific! Of course, when we’re telling time, 60 means “o’clock.”

What time is Jen’s Ten showing now? Yes, it’s 6 o’clock.

Now, let’s count by tens again but a little slower this time so we can watch what happens to the minute hand as we say the tens.

6:10

You already know this time. What time is Jen’s Ten showing us? Awesome- it’s 6:30, we’ve already gone half past 6. Keep counting by tens with me.

6:40

6:50

We are now on the hour since we have gone 60 minutes around the clock and there are 60 minutes in an hour. What time is it now? You got it! It is 7:00!

Look at Jen’s Ten! She wants to play a game with you to see if you can name her ten. You have 5 seconds to name the time before she does. Are you ready? Let’s go…
