Max Maths, Year 4, Work Book, Timetables and schedules

The 'Max Maths, Year 4, Workbook' provides students with exercises on interpreting timetables and schedules, enhancing their ability to manage time and plan accordingly. In Practice 4, students are presented with a timetable detailing flight times from Antigua to Dominica, with various departures and arrivals listed for different days of the week. They are tasked to answer questions such as the number of flights on a given day, arrival times, and the appropriate flight to choose for a meeting. For example, on Wednesday, there are three flights to Dominica, and the 6.35 p.m. flight from Antigua arrives at 7.15 p.m. On Sunday, two flights are scheduled. The AN821 flight leaves Antigua at 7.40 a.m. and arrives in Dominica at 8.20 a.m., while the AN827 flight departs at 6.35 p.m. Morning flights to Dominica are available on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. Ahmed, with a meeting at 9 a.m. on Thursday in Dominica, must choose a flight that ensures his timely arrival.

Another section of the workbook requires students to use a television guide to answer questions about programme schedules. They must identify the start times of various shows, such as 'The Adventures of Kai' at 10.15 a.m., and determine which programmes are airing at specific times, like 'Morning News' at 8.00 a.m. and 'Street Smarts' at 9.30 a.m. Additionally, students are asked about the number of programmes after a particular time, such as how many are listed after 12.20 p.m. The workbook also includes a camping trip schedule, where students must discern the timings for activities like breakfast on the first day at 8.30 a.m., bedtime at 9.30 p.m., and the planned lunch at the waterfall on the second day at 11.30 a.m. They are also asked to identify what the class should be doing at certain times, like free time at 8.30 a.m. on the second day, and when to board the bus for home, which is at 3.00 p.m. on the second day.
