In beginners Spanish we started our puppet presentations today. We barely had time though to develop our dialogue so we will continue our "mini plays" next week.
EL ORIGEN/ORIGIN
* ¿De dónde eres? (Where are you from?) is normally answered with Soy de followed by a country, state or province, town or neighbourhood.
eg. ¿De dónder eres?
Soy de los Estados Unidos, Soy de Nueva York, Soy de Camillus, etc.)
LA EDAD/AGE
* ¿Cuántos años tienes? How old are you? is normally answered with Tengo followed by the number and the word for years (años)
eg. ¿Cuantos años tienes?
Tengo 20 años.
Watch the two short videos below for practice and see you next week!

In intermediate Spanish we finished our presentations. The "Google Translator" was strong in some of the sentences but it was fun all the same.
Next day we are going to start reviewing our ordinal numbers (first, second, third, etc.) Watch the "weird", yet educative, video below and enjoy :) I really liked it.
Please notice that ordinal numbers in Spanish are masculine and feminine!!!
