tricky clock faces…
bah! last week, i was playing bingo with emily, this cute little 2nd grader i’m helping to tutor. instead of calling out numbers, there were time cards like 3:45, 1:15, etc. that she matches with the corresponding clock face. i am terrible at reading clock faces 
on the very first one, 3:45… she said her bingo card didn’t have the time. i asked “are you sure? what about this one?” pointing to one of the clock faces. she spent another 2-3 minutes staring at it, trying to read it. and then, i realized… that’s 4:45 you twit! she was right!! grr… i tried to recover… make it seem like, you know… just getting her to practice her clock reading… 
i think i made a very nice recovery
i’ve been practicing my time reading this week 
i’m ready!!
