By third grade, students should be well familiar with telling time. It is also a skill that students enjoy greatly and get excited about! Mastering time to the minute should come more easily at this stage. To build their understanding of previously-taught skills, students in third grade learn and practice elapsed time as well. In Unit 6 of Math Made Fun, we focus on identifying start times, end times and elapsed time. Students will practice these skills on digital clocks, analog clocks and time on a line. There are tons of games and hands-on activities to keep your students engaged in this unit!

For each page, there is a grade-level standard attached so you know EXACTLY what you are covering! You can feel confident that ALL the standards for Third Grade are being covered!
HOW DO I ORGANIZE THE UNITS?
I chose to store the math centers in Sterilite bins because they don’t take up too much space. It is a tight fit, but I find that they work nicely for me. However, if you choose, you could store the centers in a larger container as well. Within the bin, each math center is stored in a gallon-sized ziplock baggie.
