WorksheetsWhat this unit covers
Two clock faces are set against each other to find how much time has passed from the starting time to the finishing time. How Many Hours (on a Clock) handles the difference in hours, How Many Minutes (on a Clock) the difference in minutes, and How Many Hours and Minutes (on a Clock) puts the two together.
The first confusion is answering the finishing time itself rather than the time that has passed, and an answer such as 9:40 identifies it. With minutes, when the figure drops from 40 to 10, children fail to count the long hand's full turn and the answer comes up short.
This unit deals only with the gap between two times that fall on the same side of noon. It uses the reading ability from Telling Time to compare a pair of times, and cases that cross noon are handed off to Elapsed Time (AM and PM). Both are an entry point into Time and Duration in grade 2 and grade 3.
