What students practice
Three clock pages ask students to read and draw time to the minute and to estimate to the nearest quarter hour from clocks with only an hour hand. Four elapsed time pages use number lines to find how long, the end time, or the start time. Two pages find the value of each side of an equation to test and balance the equal sign, and two pages of two-step problems ask students to solve the first step and use that answer in the second.
What's inside
- p. 3
Read the Clock
Write the time shown on each clock.
- p. 4
Draw the Hands
Draw the hour hand and the minute hand to show each time.
- p. 5
About What Time?
Write about what time it is, to the nearest quarter hour.
- p. 6
How Long?
Use the number line to find how much time passed.
- p. 7
Find the End Time
Start at the first time and jump forward to find the end time.
- p. 8
Find the Start Time
Start at the end time and jump back to find the start time.
- p. 9
Time Story Problems
Use the number line to solve each problem.
- p. 10
Is It Equal?
Find the value of each side, then circle true or false.
- p. 11
Make It Equal
Write the number that makes both sides equal.
- p. 12
Two-Step Problems 1
Solve the first step, then use it to solve the second step.
- p. 13
Two-Step Problems 2
Solve the first step, then use it to solve the second step.
- p. 14
Mixed Review
Read each section, then solve.
Think: the short hand is past 4 and the long hand is on 7, so 4:35.
Georgia standards covered
3.PAR.3.4
Use the meaning of the equal sign to determine whether expressions involving addition, subtraction, and multiplication are equivalent.

Who it's for
Grade 3 classes in the GaDOE unit where time, the equal sign, and two-step problems meet. Every elapsed time is in hours, half hours, or quarter hours and never crosses noon or midnight, and every two-step problem has a multiplication or division step with numbers within 100.
