Marrano? I\'ve taught Spanish for 20 years and never heard a pig called a marrano.
What country does that word come from? After looking it up in the dictionary I see that
it has a lot of negative meanings, in addition to sow/pig. How about using a more standard
\"cerdo\"? Love this lesson, though, my kindergartners love it too!

Thanks for your post. We are glad listening that you and your students are enjoying our site.
The words "marrano" and "cerdo" are synonymous and both can have negative meanings.
On this site you can check the meaning of these words. http://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=marrano and

Cute! But could involve testing... not just information. I am studying for an exam- online quizzes would be great!
