This is a classic reSolve sequence aligned with the Australian Curriculum V8.4. It is only available as a downloadable package.

 

Students manage scheduling problems and problems involving elapsed time. They construct a 24-hour program and a time line, when given a number of tasks and constraints.

This is a sequence of lessons that require students to use logical thought to solve problems involving time lines and timetables. The sequence is for students who:

• have an appreciation of the relationship between hours and minutes.
• know how to record using 24-hour time.
• have a high level of literacy skills.
