Give your students meaningful practice with elapsed time using this fully digital set of 28 task cards—available in Google Forms and Google Slides! Elapsed time is introduced in 3rd grade, yet many 4th and 5th graders continue to struggle with calculating the elapsed time, start time, and end time. These digital activities provide the repeated, targeted practice students need to master this challenging concept.

💡 Task Card Formats

This set includes three types of elapsed time problems:

1. Cards 1–12: Students determine the elapsed time using start and end times.
   
2. Cards 13–20: Students find the ending time using start time + elapsed time.
