This report makes me think of a post from a few months ago here on the PLC:

Hi Bob,
I think I got the idea – but can you clarify what adestne and its similar verb forms means, and what habesne means?
I think you had a bunch of animals and they would draw one out, then ask the student what that animal says (either letting the student make up a sound or you created one), how it travels (giving options), and introducing saying “yes” or “no” by using positive and negative forms of the same verb as the question. Latin has words for yes and no but also uses verb forms as yes/no too? (That’s what Chinese has, +- verb forms for yes and no.)
Holding stuffed animals is highly appealing in my classroom. Anything with the classroom mascots engages interest around here. I have to be careful with when/how they get to hold them because they’re like a drug! Almost as powerful as eating something in class. I love using them and I like the idea of using them in another way. I’m going to introduce “talk, speak” in 5th grade soon. They’ve already seen a Chinese cover of “What Does the Fox Say” which goes nicely with this.
adestne = is he/she here, or near? So, by asking adestne ursa? I am saying–is the bear here? Is the bear present? Then, I would turn and ask: Fred habet ursam? Does Fred have the bear? (knowing full well that Sally has the bear). And so forth. I was circling the possibility of not only responding “minime” (no) but a more Latiny way of responding: non habet (he doesn’t have it).
