This class is just specifically about Christmas in Italy and understanding how to say some Christmas terms in Italian. Homeworks are optional. This class costs more than my other Italian for Kids series because I give many more print outs of coloring sheets, crafts, pdfs of vocabulary, etc. Day 1: Learn how to say some colors & Happy Christmas in Italian; Learn how to say Santa, Elves, Fairy, Snowman, and Christmas Tree; and look at some photographs of Italy during the holidays Homework: Color by number 5 Christmas coloring sheets (that have instructions in Italian) & do the attached crafts Day 2: Learn some Christmas Italian traditions (the Nativity, food, desserts) and review Homework: Given Christmas papercraft cutouts of Christmas hats & paper printout cards with Happy Christmas in Italian Day 3: Learn how to say more Christmas terms in Italian (such as elves, candle, stockings, mistletoe, Christmas tree, mince pie, etc.) Homework: Review the pdf picture of 11 terms we learned Day 4: Learn how to say 18 Christmas terms in Italian (such as sleigh, holly, fireplace, bells, candy cane, etc.) Homework: Review the pdf picture of 18 terms we learned Day 5: Learn how to say Gingerbread man and Christmas sweater; we will also review Homework: Do the attached craft cutouts of designing your own paper gingerbread man, Christmas sweater, and snowman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Subject to change

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from North Carolina State University
In high school, I was only offered Spanish. I believe that taking foreign language classes opens the doors to many opportunities. My love for languages has continued to grow and at university, I took Italian. I now give students the opportunity to learn a language that they are interested in and make learning fun. I have even been known to take facts and put them into a tune to help memorize them easier!
