Buona salute è la vera ricchezza – Good health is true wealth

We have just published new resources for Stage 5 Italian on our website, which explores daily routine and healthy habits. You will find a sample unit of work, sample assessment task (with marking guidelines) and an updated scope and sequence.

Maintaining good health is an important part of everyday life. Through the study of this unit, students will learn to exchange information about daily routines, as well as healthy activities and food choices. Students will also learn to say they’re unwell and explain symptoms. Throughout the unit, students will also explore Italian concepts of health and develop an understanding of the use of hand gestures when communicating.

This year, schools and universities across Australia will be given unlimited free digital access to Il Globo and La Fiamma for staff and students. 

A re-vamped version of In classe, a targeted monthly lift-out, will provide content and information to empower teachers and school leaders with new ways to engage students in Italian. The section entitled Insegnare is dedicated to teachers and professors.

Each edition will also feature a space dedicated to students – the first edition will include news from the previous scholastic year, contributions from students of the Italian Bilingual School in Sydney, and an interview with two students who were among the VCE top scorers for Italian in 2018.
