What is elapsed time?
Elapsed time is how much time passes between a start and end time.
How to teach it
Count on from the start time to the next hour, then add the remaining minutes, using a number line of times. Bridge over the hour carefully.
Worked example
Common mistake
Subtracting times like plain numbers (treating 60 minutes as 100) and losing track when crossing the hour.
