Es la is only used when it's 1:00. Son las is used for 2-12:00.

Ex. Son las dos = 2:00 or Es la una = 1:00
Step 3: Write either "y" or "menos"
Y: use this if the minutes are from 1-29
Menos: use this if the minutes are from 30-59 
(State the hour ahead, write menos, and state how many minutes it would take to be the given hour in the hour ahead)
Step 4: Write the minutes.
Ex. Son las dos y cinco or Son las tres menos diez

Here is a few examples:
