Telling The Time Scavenger Hunt | Analog Clock Word Problems | Year 3

This Telling the time investigation is designed to provide you and your students with a fun and interactive way to practice telling time to the half-hour, quarter-hour and nearest 5 minutes on an analog clock. The pack is made up of 8 problems for students to solve in a scavenger hunt style setup around the classroom. Students can self-correct problems since each solution is recorded on the top of the next question to answer.

Problems have been carefully created to meet ACARA standards and will build proficiency in students knowledge telling the time.

How this Pack Works:

Introduce the investigation to your students (set the stage to engage).

Display each of the 8 problem cards around your classroom + give each student a recording sheet.

Allocate students to a problem to begin working on (it does not matter where students begin because the scavenger hunt/investigation is set up in a loop.

Students work on each problem by reading/solving it. They look for the answer to the question by looking at the note and coin combinations on the top of the next card. When they find the one that matches the answer they are looking for, they begin working on the new problem underneath (if they cannot find the answer, this indicated to the student they have made a mistake and need to attempt the problem again.)

No further teacher prep needed, simply print and use!
