TIME’S UP
measurement · time patterns and elapsed time
To identify missing time in time patterns
TIME’S UP is a Grade 4 time-pattern game where students race to identify a missing time in a sequence. A game card reveals the pattern, players choose the answer letter they believe is correct, and the first student on the right answer can earn a bonus point by explaining the pattern. The speed element is paired with a reasoning requirement.
Use it for small-group review when students are working with elapsed-time patterns and repeated intervals. Ask students to describe the amount of time added or subtracted between entries before naming the missing time.
