Share
I wonder if ' share' is the right word in the following sentence.
(teacher to students)
Did you have a nice vacation?.... Let's have time to share your vacation with your classmates. Who wants to start first?

It seems to be quite a common concept among teachers eager to share the joys of sharing with their young students. Sharing one's vacation is not exactly the same as sharing one's lunch, but it's close. I think "Let's take time to share" would be more natural than "Let's have time to share," but perhaps "time to share" is a special class time designation which we "have" once a day.
