Semester 2,  2025 

This semester, students will develop their competencies in communicating and making meaning in Italian. They will explore the themes of music, sports, and free time activities, learning about different types of sports and leisure activities, as well as ways to talk about hobbies, interests, and how they spend their free time. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to express their opinions and provide reasons for their likes and dislikes regarding school subjects and different types of food.
