First, let's practice, some subject pronouns.
I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they.
Ok. I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they.
Ok, let's introduce our friend.

She has one brother and no sisters.
He is 39 years old, she is 38 years old.
Let's look at the two verbs that we've been practicing, the verb to be and the verb to have.
They are very important verbs.
