Adding Time, 5-Min Intervals

Overview:

An activity designed to help students add elapsed times in 5-minute intervals and represent the resulting end times in both analogue and digital formats. Designed for middle years students.

Learning Objectives:

• Add elapsed times in 5-minute intervals to a given start time.
• Write the resulting end times in both analogue and digital formats.
• Strengthen time calculation skills by working with different time formats.

How the Activity Works:

Students are presented with start times and an elapsed time in 5-minute intervals. They will add the elapsed time to the start time and then write the resulting end times in both analogue and digital forms. This activity helps students practise time addition and reinforces their understanding of how to represent time in both formats.
