Emmanuel Catholic College Curriculum Handbook
Year 9

Italian

In Year 9 Italian the journey will continue whereby the Italian culture comes alive and learning Italian is
a fun and meaningful experience.

This course is designed for students who have had experience of the Italian language at Year 8 level
and who are working towards further studies in the following years.

The content of the course will be well balanced in the four learning areas of reading, writing, listening
and speaking. Many cultural based activities will be incorporated in the course to consolidate the
content and skills learnt in class. They include such things as viewing Italian films in Italian, having lunch
at an Italian restaurant, visiting an Italian pottery studio and conducting a fashion parade.

At Year 9 level students will be reinforcing the content and skills that will prepare them for further studies
in their Italian language acquisition.

The “Formula Italiano” (vol 2) Italian textbook and workbook will be required for this elective.

Assessment
Assessment is in class based and will cover the four learning areas. Assessments include role plays, term
tests, oral interviews and assignments.
