New Vocabulary List on Telling Time

Today students learned the basics of how to tell time in Spanish. It's important to feel comfortable with numbers 1-59 in order to tell time, so you may want to review your numbers as well. See the files for a list of vocabulary.

We are also starting group projects to present newscasts in Spanish. Today students selected their groups and the Spanish-speaking country from which they will "broadcast." Each day we will work about 20 minutes on preparing the scripts and graphics. Each broadcast is required to have a news item, weather forecast, and a commercial. Once those are approved, groups will practice and then present their newscasts for the class. I'm looking forward to seeing how what we've learned this semester can be pulled together to create some entertaining programs!
