This is a clock! It helps us know what time it is.

Figure out how much time passes between two clock times!

SKAL Tip: the short hand always moves a little too, even when you're only counting minutes.

Elapsed time means how much time passes between two moments.

Use a number line to count forward from the start time to the end time!

SKAL Tip: jump to the next whole hour first, then count the leftover minutes.

A number line is another way to find elapsed time!

Use a T-chart to track each jump from the start time to the end time!
