24-Hour Time & Timetables Year 6 Unit
Develop Year 6 students' accuracy and reasoning with 24-hour time and practical timetables. The teaching sequence reviews am, pm, noon and midnight, then builds fluency converting between 12-hour and 24-hour notation, comparing times and calculating elapsed or waiting time.
Students apply these skills to transport timetables and multi-step journey planning. An editable PowerPoint presentation and quiz support modelling and formative checking. The colour quick guide, 24-Hour Chain Game and Timetable Mission activity add visual and collaborative practice, while five worksheet sections, matching red-answer pages, a two-page assessment and a rubric support independent work and assessment.
