Start, Finish & Duration, 15-Min Intervals (2)

Overview:

An activity where students calculate elapsed time using 15-minute intervals by completing a table with missing start times, elapsed times, or end times. Designed for middle years students.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand how to calculate elapsed time by using start times and end times.
• Complete a table with missing information, focusing on start times, elapsed times, and end times in 15-minute intervals.
• Strengthen problem-solving and time calculation skills in real-world contexts.

How the Activity Works:

Students are given a table with columns for start time, elapsed time, and end time, but with some parts missing. They need to use the given information to fill in the missing parts, working out either the start time, elapsed time, or end time in 15-minute intervals. This activity helps students apply their knowledge of time calculations, reinforcing their understanding of the relationship between start times, elapsed times, and end times.
