Earlier & Later, 15-Min Intervals
EASYTEACHING.NET
Overview:
An activity designed to help students calculate and write the new times after adding elapsed times in 15-minute intervals. Designed for middle years students.
Learning Objectives:
- Add elapsed times in 15-minute intervals to find later times.
- Write the resulting times in digital format.
- Strengthen skills in calculating time differences and representing times digitally.
How the Activity Works:
Students are given an analogue clock showing a start time and an instruction to add an elapsed time (e.g., 15 minutes, 30 minutes, etc.). They then calculate the new time and write it in digital format (e.g., 9:30 becomes 10:00 with a 30-minute addition). This activity helps students practise adding 15-minute intervals and reinforces their ability to represent times in digital form.
