Time - Elapsed Time - Intro

This math unit focuses on understanding and calculating elapsed time in various contexts, starting with basic operations involving half-hour increments and advancing toward calculating differences to the precise minute. Initially, students learn to compute elapsed time using half-hour intervals, then progress to recognizing and computing time differing by quarter-hour intervals. As their skills develop, they handle finer increments down to individual minutes. The unit weaves in different scenarios, from digital to analog clock readings and from simple to complex durations (minutes to full hours). It reinforces students' abilities to calculate future times by adding given intervals to existing times, preparing them for practical daily applications. This progression culminates in tasks that combine hours and minutes for a comprehensive understanding of time manipulation and its various practical implications in everyday settings.Skills you will learn include:

• Changes in time
• Hours vs Minutes
• Changes in half or quarter horus
• Digital or analog clocks
