story 1 - Quiz

Let's see how you're doing so far in your Spanish with a QUIZ!

Do your best! If you don't do that well, you might re-watch the first monkey story.

Don't worry, repetition never hurts in learning a language!

story 1 - episode 8

Episode 8 with pop-ups:


Additional follow-up questions:
1. How would you say, "The monkey doesn't like ice cream".

2. How would you say "The monkey doesn't like Antarctica"?

Episode 7 with pop-ups:


Additional follow-up questions:
1. What does "va a" mean?  How can we remember it means that?*

2. What does the phrase "El mono va a Antártica" mean?

3. What does the phrase, "El mono no va a Canadá" mean?

5. What would the phrase "Cuatro elefantes azules van a París" mean?

6. What would the phrase, "Al mono no le gusta Canadá" mean?

7. What would the phrase, "Los pingüinos viven en Antártica".

8. How would you say, "There aren't any bananas in Antarctica"?

9. How would you say, "There aren't any pink monkeys in Canada"?


*"va a" kind of sounds like the sound a sheep makes "ba-a-a-a-a".  And so if you can remember that a sheep goes ba-a, you can remember "va a" means "s/he goes".

Do you have a better association for "va a"? Let me know in the comments section below!
