MY CART
Students love trying to beat their score (and also their friends' scores)! I usually grade them on participation and overall progress - did they get better over 10 time trials? We usually spread it out so we do one a day for two weeks or so.
There are many modifications you can make to this assignment. You can have them go to 2 minutes if you feel 1 minute is too short. You can also have them draw a line where they stop at the clocked time, then have them do 10 more for practice. Students can also write the translations to the side once the clock stops. Can they beat the teacher? This is a fun one.
The files are DOC so you can modify the verbs or even the tenses if you want to do something other than present tense.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I currently teach Spanish 1 to grades 7-10. I taught two years of high school Spanish in the Northern Mariana Islands (levels 1 and 2) and now teach in Washington State. This upcoming year I will be teaching grades 6-8 Spanish. I served in the US Peace Corps in El Salvador from 2004-2006. I studied in Ecuador for 1 year, 2002-2003. I volunteered with Amigos de las Americas in the Dominican Republic for 2 months (2000) and then served on the training team and board of directors for the Seattle Chapter (2007-2009). I have travelled to all of the countries in Central America, along with Dominican Republic, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, and have now been to Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Thailand. We try to visit our family in El Salvador each year for at least a few weeks.
