**A ready-to-teach Year 6 time problems lesson designed to develop pupils’ confidence with elapsed time, multi-step calculations and SATs-style reasoning in KS2 maths.

This lesson is fully standalone and ready to teach, but also works as the first part of a two-lesson sequence on Year 6 time problems.**

This Year 6 maths lesson focuses on solving multi-step time problems, helping pupils calculate durations, work with different units of time and apply reasoning to real-life contexts such as journeys and timetables.

Pupils develop strategies for breaking problems into clear steps, identifying key information and carrying out accurate time calculations. The lesson supports strong understanding of elapsed time and helps pupils build confidence with more complex worded problems.

Teachers can use the included Smart Notebook input slides to model methods clearly and guide pupils through structured examples before independent practice.

Pupils then complete a differentiated independent activity, designed to support all learners while still providing appropriate challenge. The tasks focus on applying time knowledge, reasoning through multi-step problems and improving accuracy in calculations.

This resource is ideal for Year 6 time revision, KS2 reasoning practice, SATs preparation, or targeted intervention sessions.

Year 6 Time Word Problems Bundle

A ready-to-teach Year 6 Time Word Problems bundle designed to develop pupils’ understanding of elapsed time, multi-step problem solving and interpreting data in KS2 maths. This bundle includes three fully prepared lessons covering time calculations, complex word problems and time-based bar charts. Each lesson is fully standalone and can be taught independently or used as part of wider Year 6 maths revision. This Year 6 maths bundle contains three complete lessons focused on time word problems and data interpretation. The lessons support pupils in developing fluency with elapsed time, strengthening their ability to break down multi-step problems and apply reasoning in real-life contexts. Pupils also practise interpreting information from bar charts and using it to answer structured questions. Each lesson includes Smart Notebook input slides for teacher modelling, along with differentiated independent activities and full answers. This allows for clear whole-class teaching followed by accessible practice for all learners. The resources can be used individually for targeted teaching or together as a structured set for Year 6 SATs revision and KS2 problem solving practice. This bundle is ideal for Year 6 SATs preparation, KS2 reasoning practice, arithmetic application, time topic coverage and intervention sessions. **What’s Included** ✔ 3 complete Year 6 maths lessons ✔ Lesson 1: Elapsed time problems, including multi-step ✔ Lesson 2: Time word problems and reasoning ✔ Lesson 3: Time bar charts and data interpretation ✔ Smart Notebook input slides for teacher modelling (each lesson) ✔ Differentiated independent worksheets (3 levels per lesson) ✔ Plenary tasks (each lesson) **Why Teachers Use This** ✔ Saves planning time with 3 ready-to-teach lessons ✔ Builds confidence with time word problems and data interpretation ✔ Supports SATs-style question practice ✔ Fully differentiated for mixed-ability KS2 classes ✔ Flexible use as standalone lessons or a full revision set **Lesson Overview** ✔ Lesson 1: Elapsed time and multi-step calculations ✔ Lesson 2: Time word problems requiring structured reasoning ✔ Lesson 3: Interpreting and answering questions on time bar charts
