Year 3 time problems Year 3 time problems We have also just published a great new set of pages on time problems for Year 3. The first two pages look at simple one step problems such as: Assembly starts at 9:10 am. It lasts half an hour. What time does it finish? The next two pages look at flight times and timetables. It is perhaps surprising that children often find these difficult to interpret and they need plenty of practice, so why not find out how long it takes to fly from Bournemouth airport to Lanzarote? ‘Word problems’ is one of the most searched after subjects on our site. Whilst we do not have separate categories for this they can be found in many places, including Challenges and Investigations and Measurement. Go to Year 3 time problems
