Time and Elapsed Time
Students solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, hours, and days using number lines.
Key Questions
- Calculate elapsed time between two given points in a day.
- Construct a timeline to represent a sequence of events and their durations.
- Analyze real-world situations where calculating elapsed time is essential.

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
More in Patterns, Data, and Probability
Generating and Analyzing Number Patterns
Students identify recursive and explicit rules for number and shape patterns, generating terms based on rules and observing features.
3 methodologies
Data Collection and Representation
Students use many-to-one correspondence in graphs to represent large data sets, including line plots, bar graphs, and pictographs.

Interpreting Data on Line Plots
Students make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8) and answer questions about the data.
3 methodologies
Probability and Likelihood
Students explore the language of chance and predict outcomes of simple experiments using spinners, dice, and coin flips.
3 methodologies
Measurement: Length and Units
Students know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units and express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit.
