Event Ordering

Students practice time zone conversion in this applied worksheet. They read six event descriptions from different cities worldwide and convert each local time into Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Afterward, they arrange the events in chronological order according to UTC. The activity strengthens math and geography skills while helping students understand global synchronization. It’s ideal for teaching how time zones affect international coordination in travel, communication, and science.
