NASA eClips Real World:  Food Security -- Monitoring Crops from SpaceVideo Description:  Discover how NASA's Earth-observing satellites gather data to monitor food growth. Dr. Inbal Becker-Reshef describes how mathematics is used to interpret satellite data and describe vegetation and crop yield. Dr. Hannah Kerner shares how algorithms and models use NASA data to describe and predict food supply and food shortages. This work through NASA Harvest provides tools for farmers and governments to describe and predict food security worldwide. Video Length:  5:25.NASA eClipsTM is a suite of online student-centered, standards-based resources that support instruction by increasing STEM literacy in formal and nonformal settings.  These free digital and downloadable resources inform and engage students through NASA-inspired, real-world connections.NASA eClips Real World segments (grades 6-8) connect classroom mathematics to 21st Century careers and innovations.  They are designed for students to develop an appreciation for mathematics through real-world problem solving.

This tutorial helps students tell time in Spanish. It is a direct lesson that explicitly teaches phrases and vocabulary needed to tell time. There is also an opportunity for students to answer questions while viewing.

You may want to put some guiding questions on the board or on an exit slip, for example, to gauge students understanding of the concept.

1) How do you ask "What time is it?"
2) How do you say "It is ___ o'clock"?
3) What is one way to say 12 o'clock?
4) How do you specify AM vs. PM?
5) What makes the 1 o'clock hour different than the rest?

Students will learn to tell time to the hour, while having an opportunity to practice this skill independently.
