Italian Course Descriptions for Youth

Step into the world of Italian, the language of music, fashion, art, genius, and of course, gelato! This exciting new program is designed to introduce children to one of the most beloved languages in the world, while laying the foundation for future opportunities and cultural exploration.

No prior knowledge of Italian? No problem! This course is perfect for beginners. Children will learn to understand and use everyday expressions and basic phrases to meet simple needs. They'll be able to introduce themselves and others, ask and answer questions about where they live, who they know, and what they have. With support, they’ll begin to engage in simple conversations in Italian.

Learning is made fun and effective through a variety of interactive activities, games, and collaborative exercises. Our approach encourages curiosity, builds confidence, and makes language learning a joyful experience.

This course is designed for children who are native Italian speakers, who regularly speak Italian at home, but who are not formally educated in the language or require targeted support.

The primary goal is to establish a strong foundation in Italian literacy. Experience in multilingual education has shown that the Italian language possesses specific features that must be addressed through a structured and thoughtful approach.

The course focuses particularly on developing reading and writing skills, while also incorporating other language competencies. The aim is to strengthen the child’s command of Italian, providing reliable tools and greater confidence on which to build their linguistic journey as native speakers.

Questo corso è rivolto a bambini di madrelingua italiana, ovvero a coloro che parlano regolarmente italiano in ambito familiare, ma che non sono scolarizzati in questa lingua o necessitano di un supporto mirato.

L’obiettivo principale è fornire una solida base nell’alfabetizzazione in italiano. L’esperienza nel contesto dell’educazione plurilingue mostra, infatti, che la lingua italiana presenta caratteristiche specifiche che richiedono un approccio strutturato e consapevole.

Il corso si concentra in particolare sullo sviluppo delle competenze di lettura e scrittura, senza tuttavia trascurare le altre abilità linguistiche. L’intento è quello di rafforzare la padronanza dell’italiano, offrendo strumenti sicuri e affidabili su cui costruire il proprio percorso linguistico da madrelingua.
