2. Write Topic and Date clearly and maintain Index
3. You only have to write the learning outcome and the content of the topic.

5. Write Learning outcome before starting to write the content of the topic.

1. Ask and tell time
2. Use time expressions in sentences



Now without wasting any more time let's get to our topic.

DECIR LA HORA (TELLING TIME) 


The verb ser is used to express the time of day. Use es when referring to one oclock” and use son when referring to all other hours.

Es la una
Its one oclock.
Son las dos.
Its two oclock.

*   The feminine article (la, las) is used before the hour because it refers to la hora.

Es la una.
Its one oclock.
Son las dos.
Its two oclock.

*   Minutes can be added to the hour using the word y (and).

Es la una y cinco.
Its five minutes past one.
Son las tres y doce.
Its twelve minutes past three.

*   Minutes can be subtracted from the hour using the word menos (less).

Es la una menos cinco.
Its five minutes till one.
Son las tres menos doce.
Its twelve minutes till three.
