TIME WARPED

I had gathered my first-grade class around me to teach them to tell time
using a conventional-style analog clock. We'll be learning about the
hour hand and the minute hand, I explained. One of my students
interrupted and said, "I don't need to learn on that kind of clock. My
dad bought me this digital watch, and right now it's 10 minutes to 38."
