Elapsed Time Games

Try these games and activities at home to help your children practice elapsed time.

Daily Schedule

Let your children keep track of their schedule and ask them to figure the elapsed time for each activity. For example, how long did your child spend eating breakfast, reading, taking a bath, or playing video games?

How Long Will It Take?

Give your kids practice with elapsed time by encouraging them to figure out how long daily activities take. For example, the next time you order a pizza online or by phone, you'll probably be given an estimated delivery time. Use that information to create a word problem that's relevant to your child's life, such as, "It's 5:40 p.m. now and the pizza shop says the pizza will be here at 6:20 p.m. How long will it take for the pizza to arrive?"

Order a set of time dice from online retailers or teacher supply stores. The set contains two twelve-sided dice, one with numbers representing the hours and the other with numbers representing minutes. Take turns rolling the time dice with your child. Each player should roll twice, then calculate the elapsed time between the two resulting dice times. (A pencil and paper will come in handy, as you'll want to jot down the time of the first roll.)

Elapsed Time Word Problems Worksheets

How do you calculate elapsed time? Elapsed time is the difference between the starting and ending times. To find the elapsed time, students need to learn how to read a clock and take a measure of time. Since, the time has not more than 60 minutes and seconds, with hours being not more than 24. Now there are different ways in which you can calculate the elapsed time and are as follows. You can think of a problem, by picturing the time on the clock and moving it by hours or minutes. For instance, 11:50 pm + 1 hour = 12:50 am; given that the day changes at 12. When you are taking out the difference, there are different things you need to consider. The most important thing is the borrowing step. In this regard, we have to be just as careful as we are during decimal subtraction. As you practice this, your skills will get better and it will seem easier for you. This series of lessons and worksheets will teach students how to determine an elapsed time with story based math problems.

  • Homework 2 - Tyler got in line for his favorite ride at 11:35, and he boarded the ride at 12:25. How long was he waiting to get on the ride?
  • Homework 3 - If Jamie started jogging at 7:15 and jogged for an hour, what time did she stop jogging?
  • Homework 4 - You've had a busy weekend and want to determine how long you spent doing each activity. You know what time each event started and ended, but aren't sure how long each event took. Using the timeline, determine how long each event lasted.

Practice Worksheets

The practice sheets cover a lot of different themes and thoughts for students to contemplate.

  • Practice 1 - What is the missing time in those gaps?
  • Practice 2 - If Sarah leaves her house at 6:45 and gets to the bus stop at 7:00, how long does it take her to walk to the bus stop?
  • Practice 3 - Henry painted a picture of a tree in 25 minutes. If he started at 3:15, what time did he finish?
  • Practice 4 - Column one shows a start time. Column two shows an end time. Fill in the duration (how much time has passed between the two times) column on the chart.

Math Skill Quizzes

The first quiz you will run into a lot of time in real life. This is especially true if you live in a major city.

  • Quiz 1 - James left his house for the train station at 1:30. If he arrived at the station at 3:05, how long did it take him to get to the station?
  • Quiz 2 - Manny and Joe started sailing their boats in the pond at 3:10 and decided to go home at 7:55. How long were they sailing their boats?
  • Quiz 3 - Daniel wen to the zoo for the day. He arrived at 9:30 and left at 5:45. How much time did he spend at the zoo?

How Is This Skill Used in The Real World?

This skill has a ton of application in the real world. Understanding the duration of time is critical in many medical aspects of recovery and therapy. Doctors often build a recovery timeline for their patients. If you were every injured or have been really sick, you would know this for instance. I played high school and college softball. I had the toughest position in terms of stress on the knee. I was a catcher. On the typical day, I would crouch over a thousand times. Having a career that spanned well over fifteen years, physicians estimate that I crouched well over a million times. As a result, I had to have my right knee replaced through surgery. After surgery I had a two-day hospital stay. My physician gave me a recovery timeline that indicated what activities I should be able to do at each stage. It was based on days. I was told to stay immobile for ten days, followed by ten days of light walking, every ten to twelve days I was able to do a little more. Guess how I calculate what day my level activity expanded? You guessed it. I also had eight weeks of physical therapy. I would perform strengthening exercises and have therapy performed on my knee. Each exercise or therapy session was based on ten to fifteen-minute increments. Every time I attended a session, it was an elapsed time word problem to determine when my session was complete, and I could head home or call form a ride.

Time and Clock Worksheets

Welcome to the time worksheets page at Math-Drills.com where taking your time is encouraged! On this page you will find Time math worksheets including elapsed time, telling time on analog clocks, calendars and converting time worksheets.

The calendars come in two different formats: yearly (all on one page) and monthly when you need extra space or a larger layout. The calendars are very useful in conjunction with the elapsed time worksheets with days, weeks, months, and years. Students who have difficulty visualizing a calendar may need the actual calendars to use as a reference. Telling time on analog clocks is still an important skill despite the number of digital clocks around; many people still choose the analog clock design for aesthetic purposes.

The calendars on this page are meant for anyone to use for purposes including personal schedules, classroom planning, holiday calendars, business meetings, event calendars, or anything else. They can also be used in math activities such as elapsed date activities. A simple activity with the monthly calendars is to ask students to place an item or mark on specific spots on the calendar (e.g. "Place a bean on a Tuesday in March."). After students become familiar with how a calendar is laid out and works, you can create more challenging activities like finding elapsed dates, discovering the number of days in each month, scheduling activities, etc.

Yearly calendars are a great way to see an entire year on one page. Although not easy to write on all your appointments and anniversaries, they are a quick reference and can be very useful when completing math activities to familiarize students with calendars or more advanced activities with calendars.

Specific yearly calendars for the years 2000 to 2050 are available in this section. For any other year or if you want a custom title, you can use the general yearly calendars with fillable titles. There are seven general yearly calendars and seven general leap year calendars in two different formats (Sunday to Saturday and Monday to Sunday) which will cover any year from 1583 on.

  • Yearly Calendars (Monday to Sunday Format) Yearly Calendars for Specific Years from 2000 to 2050 (Monday to Sunday Format) (Fillable Title) General Yearly Calendars (Monday to Sunday Format) ✎ (Fillable Title) General Leap Year Calendars (Monday to Sunday Format) ✎

A great number of math activities can be accomplished with monthly calendars. Familiarization activities include finding specific dates, determining which day of the week it is, marking important events on the calendar, and determining the number of days in each month, week or year. Further activities mainly include elapsed date activities where students find the number of days, weeks and/or months between two dates or find a date a certain number of months, weeks and/or days in the future or the past. Of course, these calendars can also be used as normal reference calendars by anyone.

Originally, Math-Drills calendars always started on Sundays, but there are many people in the world who use calendars starting on Mondays. A good argument can be made by thinking of the word, "weekend." The end of the week or week end is Saturday and Sunday, so why would you put Sunday at the beginning of the week? Luckily, both options exist, so pick the one that suits you the best.

Fillable means that you can type whatever you like into each date. It is possible to add up to seven short lines of text. This is useful if you want to write important dates onto the calendar or create activities for students (e.g. what date is 78 days from today?).

Reading and Sketching Time on Analog Clocks

elapsed time problem solving worksheets

Even though the time is displayed digitally in so many places these days—on cell phones, on computers, on microwaves—there are still quite a few analog clocks around. Besides being able to tell time on an analog clock, this is probably one of the first places that students encounter a number system other than base ten. Thanks to the Babylonians et. al. we have 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour. Once your students master the intricacies of the time system, they can start learning about other useful number systems like hexadecimal and binary, both of which are heavily used in computer programming.

Suns and moons are included with each clock to indicate the time of day. Think of the moon as midnight and the sun as noon. If the clock has a moon (midnight) on the left and a sun (noon) on the right, then the time is between midnight and noon (AM in North America). The reverse means that the time is between noon and midnight (PM in North America).

These clock worksheets include hour and minute hands, so students who are starting to learn reading time on analog clocks only have to worry about two arms. There are a variety of intervals available depending on the level of the student. The goal is to get students to be able to tell time to the minute. There are versions with twelve clocks and versions with four large clocks.

  • Reading 12 Hour Time from Clocks with Minute Hands (12 Clocks per Page) Reading 12 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Reading 12 Hour Time from Clocks with Minute Hands (4 Clocks per Page) Reading 12 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

These worksheets also include second hands in various intervals. These are best to use after students have mastered reading time to the minute. The addition of a third hand challenges them more and helps them understand how many seconds are in a minute.

  • Reading 12 Hour Time from Clocks with Second Hands (12 Clocks per Page) Reading 12 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 12 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Reading 12 Hour Time from Clocks with Second Hands (4 Clocks per Page) Reading 12 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 12 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

Students encounter 24 hour time in various places such as on plane tickets, in computer programming and in literature. These worksheets are similar to reading 12 hour clocks, but include a second set of numbers on the inside of the minute ticks.

  • Reading 24 Hour Time from Clocks with Minute Hands (12 Clocks per Page) Reading 24 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Reading 24 Hour Time from Clocks with Minute Hands (4 Clocks per Page) Reading 24 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

These 24 hour clocks also include second hands, so students can read time represented on clocks to the nearest second.

  • Reading 24 Hour Time from Clocks with Second Hands (12 Clocks per Page) Reading 24 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Reading 24 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Reading 24 Hour Time from Clocks with Second Hands (4 Clocks per Page) Reading 24 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Reading 24 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

Once students are able to read time off of analog clocks, they can be challenged to sketch time. This might seem easy, but analog clocks tend to have a small quirk in that the hands don't always point to the exact number. For example, if it is 6:30, the hour hand will be half way between the 6 and the 7. Taking time to point this out to students will ensure they succeed on these worksheets.

  • Sketching Times to Minutes on 12 Hour Analog Clocks (12 Clocks per Page) Sketching 12 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Sketching Times to Minutes on 12 Hour Analog Clocks (4 Clocks per Page) Sketching 12 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

Once students have mastered sketching in the hour and minute hands, it is time to add the second hands. As with the hour hand, the minute hand doesn't always point exactly to the minute. For example, if it is 6:30:45, the minute hand will be about 3/4 of the way to the :31 mark. If they have learned this about the hour hand already, it shouldn't be too much of a leap to get them to understand this about the minute hand.

  • Sketching Times to Seconds on 12 Hour Analog Clocks (12 Clocks per Page) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Sketching Times to Seconds on 12 Hour Analog Clocks (4 Clocks per Page) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 12 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

Very much the same as sketching on 12 hour clocks, these worksheets use 24 hour time.

  • Sketching Times to Minutes on 24 Hour Analog Clocks (12 Clocks per Page) Sketching 24 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Sketching Times to Minutes on 24 Hour Analog Clocks (4 Clocks per Page) Sketching 24 Hour Time in One Hour Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 30 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 15 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 5 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 1 Minute Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )
  • Sketching Times to Seconds on 24 Hour Analog Clocks (12 Clocks per Page) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals (12 Clocks) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals (12 Clocks)
  • Sketching Times to Seconds on 24 Hour Analog Clocks (4 Clocks per Page) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 30 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 15 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 5 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks ) Sketching 24 Hour Time in 1 Second Intervals ( 4 Large Clocks )

Converting Time

elapsed time problem solving worksheets

It is a very useful skill to be able to convert between 12 and 24 hour time in a global world. Even in places, like the U.S., where 12 hour time is used a lot, students still see time formatted in 24 hour time in a wide variety of situations.

  • Converting Between 12- and 24-Hour Times Converting 12- to 24-Hour time Converting 24- to 12-Hour time Converting Between 12- and 24-Hour time

Converting between time units worksheets are useful to test students understanding of time measurement and to give them more practice.

  • Converting Between Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days and Weeks (one step up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes and hours (one step up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes, hours and days (one step up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes, hours, days and weeks (one step up or down)
  • Converting Between Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days and Weeks (one or two steps up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes and hours (one- or two-steps up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes, hours and days (one- or two-steps up or down) Converting between seconds, minutes, hours, days and weeks (one- or two-steps up or down)

Elapsed Time Worksheets

elapsed time problem solving worksheets

Elapsed time refers to the amount of time that has passed between a start time and a finish time. This can be challenging to students if they are not completely familiar with the base 60 system used for second, minutes and hours, and the fact that there are 24 hours a day sometimes split into morning and afternoon times.

  • Elapsed Time to Minutes Elapsed Time with 1 Minute Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 5 Minute Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 15 Minute Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 1 Minute Intervals; Max 24 Hours Elapsed Time with 5 Minute Intervals; Max 24 Hours Elapsed Time with 15 Minute Intervals; Max 24 Hours
  • Elapsed Time to Seconds Elapsed Time with 1 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 5 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 15 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 5 Hours Elapsed Time with 1 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 24 Hours Elapsed Time with 5 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 24 Hours Elapsed Time with 15 Minute/Second Intervals; Max 24 Hours

The elapsed date worksheets in this section are based on a three column table with ten rows. Each different version of the elapsed date table will challenge students in different ways. The worksheets that ask students to find the end date are given a start date and an elapsed time. These worksheets work well for starting at a specific point and counting up. The worksheets that ask students to find the start date, elapsed time or the end date will have random blanks in the table, so students may have to figure out the elapsed time forwards or backwards. Below you will find various challenges including elapsed time with days only, then we progressively add weeks, months, and years to the worksheets.

Please note that when finding future dates, it is important to start with the largest unit first and progress to the smaller units. For example, if the start date is February 8, 2020 and the elapsed time is 3 years, 2 months, 3 weeks and 6 days, you would add the three years first to get February 8, 2023. Next, add the months to get April 8, 2023. Finally, add the weeks and days to get May 5, 2023. You can add the weeks and days together as they are both exact lengths whereas years and months vary in size.

  • Calculate End Dates from Start Dates and Elapsed Times in Days, Weeks, Months and Years Calculate End Date for Various Elapsed Days Calculate End Date for Various Elapsed Days + Weeks Calculate End Date for Various Elapsed Days + Weeks + Months Calculate End Date for Various Elapsed Days + Weeks + Months + Years
  • Calculate Elapsed Time Between Two Dates in Days, Weeks, Months and Years Calculate Elapsed Time Between Two Dates in Days Calculate Elapsed Time Between Two Dates in Days + Weeks Calculate Elapsed Time Between Two Dates in Days + Weeks + Months Calculate Elapsed Time Between Two Dates in Days + Weeks + Months + Years
  • Calculate Start Dates from End Dates and Elapsed Time in Days, Weeks, Months and Years Calculate Start Date from End Date and Elapsed Time in Days Calculate Start Date from End Date and Elapsed Time in Days + Weeks Calculate Start Date from End Date and Elapsed Time in Days + Weeks + Months Calculate Start Date from End Date and Elapsed Time in Days + Weeks + Months + Years
  • Calculate Various Start Dates, Elapsed Time or End Dates with Days, Weeks, Months and Years Calculate Start Date, Elapsed Time or End Date (Days) Calculate Start Date, Elapsed Time or End Date (Days + Weeks) Calculate Start Date, Elapsed Time or End Date (Days + Weeks + Months) Calculate Start Date, Elapsed Time or End Date (Days + Weeks + Months + Years)

Adding and Subtracting Time

elapsed time problem solving worksheets

Adding and subtracting time is similar to adding any numbers, but the regrouping amounts are different. If you think of the decimal system, numbers are divided into places named: ones, tens, hundreds, etc. In time values, the places have different values based on an ancient Babylonian numbering system with a base of 60. In the "seconds place," there are 60 unique seconds from 0 to 59. The same is true for the "minutes place." The "hours place" can vary from 24 if one is interested in counting days as well, or can be greater than 24 if the largest place value is in the hours place. In these worksheets, students are challenged to regroup seconds and minutes as they add or subtract two time amounts.
