Italian 101
Date: 08/28/2014
ASSESSMENTS
Interpretive activity:
Opening Activity
Interpersonal activity:
Meeting new people
Presentational: Write
a short dialogue, using
the formal and
informal tenses.
CULTURE:
Italian greetings. I explain that Italians tend to be formal in their social exchanges.
I focus on the formal and informal situations. I then show some pictures explaining
that in Italy its very common to shake hands when you are greeting someone and
that in friendly situations we also kiss each other on both cheeks, starting with the
right one and at that time we may also embrace.
CLOSE:
After the students write the formal and informal dialogues I will ask for some
volunteers to read the dialogue to the class, so that they can also practice their
pronunciation in Italian. Then I will give each student one of the pictures that are
on the blackboard, like president Obama, a doctor, a student etc.. They will then
become the person in the picture and they will have to talk with each other using
formal and informal appropriately based upon the picture they have. (10min)
NOTES:
Next time: I tell the students which pages they
need to read for the next class. Since the book
is written in English, it will be easier for them
to understand what Im going to cover in class
if they have already read something about that.
