Time Intervals and Daily Schedules
Grade 3 Mathematics Learning about time and schedules 45 minutes of exploration
Learning Goals - I Can Statements
I can measure time intervals within the same hour using clocks I can create a daily schedule with timed activities I can calculate how long activities take I can solve word problems about time
What Happens in an Hour?
Look at the clock showing 4:00 Count 30 minutes forward Where will the minute hand be? Let's practice together!
Counting Minutes on a Clock
The minute hand moves around the clock Each number represents 5 minutes Count by 5s: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30... Use the number line to help count minutes
Solving Time Problems
{"left":"Beth leaves home at 4:30\nShe arrives at dance at 4:55\nHow long did it take?","right":"Count from 30 to 55 minutes\n30 + 25 = 55\nIt took 25 minutes!"}
Create Your Daily Schedule
List 5 daily activities Write start times and how long each takes Examples: Breakfast, School, Recess, Reading Calculate total time for all activities
Practice Problem
Jamal starts homework at 3:20 PM He finishes 30 minutes later What time did he finish? Draw the clock hands to show your answer!
