¿Quién es él? ¿Quién es ella?

Find 7 people and have them write four or five sentences about themselves in Spanish (and/or translate their English into Spanish for the student). The teacher reads the sentences about the mystery person. The student must identify who the person is using only English, using the phrase ‘His/Her name is __.’ The student must also answer the question of where the person being identified is from: ‘He/She is from Guatemala City.’

Sample questions to generate four or five sentences about the person:
Where are you from? / ¿De dónde eres tú?
What is your job? / ¿Qué eres tú?
What did you do yesterday? / ¿Qué hizo ayer?
How old are you? / ¿Cuántos años tienes?
Personality trait? / ¿Cómo eres tú?
Do you have a wife or a husband? / ¿Tienes esposa o esposo?
Do you have brothers or sisters here? / ¿Cuántos hermanos tienes tú aquí?
What do you like? / Qué te gusta?
What do you do every day? / ¿Qué haces todos los días?
What is your favorite memory of the student? / Una memoria favorita con ___.
