Telling Time - We spent lots of time today reviewing this:
Students brainstormed about important things to remember about how to tell time and say when something is happening. We compared our notes before checking in the book on page 127 and then doing LOTS of PRACTICING.

Notes about the THREE different words for "TIME":
La hora (clock time); El tiempo (general 'time'); La vez/las veces - multiple times/occurances

Packet - "Clock Time": Lots of good notes and hints about telling time - we worked through this, taking notes and just doing a few examples from each exercise.

2B Partner Oral Exam:
We set-up the class room for rotating oral partners.
I taught the students how to score each other.
We had two rounds of orals - everyone had a chance to BOTH score someone and to be scored.
We'll do more of this on Monday.
