This resource contains posters explaining different strategies for solving elapsed time problems, including the zoom strategy, T-chart, number line, clock face, and time difference methods. Each poster provides a clear example to support students in visualising time calculations, making it an ideal reference for upper primary school classrooms.
Interpret and use timetables and itineraries to plan activities and determine the duration of events and journeys
Recognise and use the relationship between formal units of time including days, hours, minutes and seconds to estimate and compare the duration of events
Solve problems involving the duration of time including situations involving “am” and “pm” and conversions between units of time
Compare 12- and 24-hour time systems and solve practical problems involving the conversion between them
Tell time to the minute and investigate the relationship between units of time
Convert between units of time
Use ‘am’ and ‘pm’ notation and solve simple time problems
