							| Carinita, they can talk about FAVORITE THINGS. What �s your favorite singer/TV star/soccer player/... For exemple; My favorite singer is Justin Biber. How old is he? He is..... Do you like Shakira?   What �s your favorite soccer player?  Messi. Is Messi from Argentina? Yes, he is. Is he good? Yes, he is. Where is he now? Is he married? Is he 20?   Carinita, I think you suggest things they normally like to talk about. If they know more than this structures you can add more questions. Hope I could help you a little. A hug,  Jussara. |  10 Jun 2011

							| Hi Carinita, 
 You could also put sentences as "I like .... because ....." / "I get angry when...." / I believe that ....." and let them complete the sentences as they wish. you could also post pictures and ask them to comment on the picture or say what they understand.  
 I wish this helps!
