An analogue clock uses hands to point to the time on a dial with numbers around the edge. Both kinds of clock show the same information in different ways.
The hour hand on an analogue clock moves slowly, and the minute hand moves all the way round in an hour. Learning to read analogue clocks helps you understand time better, including halves and quarters of an hour.
