Elapsed time can be one of the hardest 3rd grade math standards to teach. This set provides students with much-needed practice in solving elapsed time word problems.
 
Includes:
Multiple-Choice Task Cards
Open-Response Task Cards
Worksheet/Assessment
 
TASK CARDS
Each task card has a short word problem that requires students to determine the elapsed time, the beginning time, or the ending time based on the interval that has passed.
 
Includes hour, half hour, quarter hour, and 5 minute intervals.
 
There are 2 sets of task cards. The questions are the same, but one set has multiple-choice answers while the other has open-response.
 
Each set includes:
20 elapsed time task cards
recording sheet
answer key
 
WORKSHEET
This is a one-page activity that has four elapsed time word problems with space to solve and show work. This can be used for independent practice, homework, or a short assessment.
 
 
STANDARDS SUPPORTED BY THIS RESOURCE:
 
CCSS3.MD.A.1
Tell and write time to the nearest minute and measure time intervals in minutes. Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, e.g., by representing the problem on a number line diagram.
