3rd Grade Color by Code Math Worksheet - Elapsed Time

Reviewing 3rd grade math standards is a must to help your students succeed. There are so many new concepts they have to learn throughout the year, but we really don't want them to forget what they've already learned. A fun way to get students practicing key concepts is to have math color pages.

This math color by code has students find elapsed time. Elapsed time is a difficult concept for many students. I wouldn't give this until students have had lots of practice. They may need to use extra paper to find the answer if you use a method like mountains, hills, and rocks.

I would definitely do a couple with the students before having them complete it on their own. You want to make sure students understand the code.

When I do this with my students they always have to show their answer, and not just the color. I have students complete the problems in pencil and color around. Or, they can trace with a sharpie and color over that. If they only have the color, you won't know if they truly understand the skill. I have several of these worksheets, and I like to put them together in a quilt book to show math review throughout the school year.

You will get a pdf with 2 pages. One will be the worksheet and the second is the answer key.
