Big Fat Italian Quiz

(13)
Huge thanks to Jane80 who made a Big Fat French Quiz - and I thought it was so good, I have copied her format and made an Italian version. I get my classes to make jokers and use them on 1 round, so that they double their score for that round and this makes the quiz out of 50. I am sure that there may be better questions out there so please feel free to let me know if it can be improved. I hope you will find this an ideal resource for the end of the year. I have also just updated the answer sheets at the end which i realise were incorrect - sorry.

Il passato prossimo

(2)
A 'discovery' sheet for the past tense in Italian. Pupils work in groups to work out the rules for the different infinitive groups and then present their findings to the rest of the class. My pupils far prefer this kind of discovery work and group learning. Homework suggestion also attached so they can find out the past participles for irregular verbs and then they have to make up at least 5 sentences in the past tense.

passe compose match up game on holidays

(0)
<p>A very basic matching game to help low ability sets with the passé composé when talking about holidyas. Cut up the sheets into single phrases. Number the English sentences with 1-8. Hand out all the the cards at random to pupils and get those with the English sentences to say them out loud. The person with the French sentence which matches has to stand up and say their matching sentence. Checks pronunciation and gives some basic sentences to use. Can then be used in foundation level writing.</p>

Researching Italy computer activity

I have made the below activity for my year 10 class for the end of the year. You need to have a computer room, or access to computers for each pupil / pair. They have several facts to find out about Italy, culminating in information about holiday destinations and what they could do there. I hope it will fit in with the holiday topic we are currently studying and have a little cultural input! The answers to the first 17 questions are on the third page.
