Building confidence is key to any foreign language, and that is what I will be doing through this class. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Italian for Kids is a series of classes that include learning vocabulary. Classes can be taken consecutively or not. We focus on vocabulary (more focus on conversation is in Italian for Beginners and Italian for Teens). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Week 1: We will learn 15 terms of items in bedrooms including bed, room, teddy bear, lamp, etc. Week 2: We will learn 15 terms of items in the bathroom including soap, toothbrush, sink, etc. Week 3: We will learn 13 terms of items in the living room such as TV, DVD player, armchair, sofa, etc. Week 4: We will learn 23 terms of items in the kitchen and dining room such as washing machine, toaster, ironing board, chair, table, etc. Week 5: We will learn 13 terms of items in the garden such as swimming pool, greenhouse, tree, flowers, plants, etc. *Each time, we will review the vocabulary from the last lesson. *Students will be given a PDF, fun worksheets, or colorings after each class, in order to review if they would like to. Homework is optional. *Schedule is subject to change. I will have more Italian classes coming soon! ------------------------------------------ (If you have older students, I have other Italian classes too: Italian for Beginners & Italian for Teens). *Also you can request a new time if you need a different time slot. (This course used to be called Italian for Kids 11).

Other Details
Parental Guidance
If there is extra time, I will share some Italian songs via YouTube and the links will be in the classroom if students want to practice or watch it again. No account needed.
Supply List
You don't need to buy materials. Students will be given matching worksheets, coloring sheets, and/or more to help them review what they have learned. Therefore, a printer and crayons would be helpful but homework is optional, so this is not necessary.

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 language 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!
