Fase 1 - studio

Minimum total number of words to write: 100
Post only 1 message in the Class Forum including all the following points and replies to all questions.

IMPORTANT: Use a text editor (like Microsoft Word) to write the assignments. In this way you do nor run the risk to lose your work if there is a connection failure. When your assignment is complete, copy it and paste it from the text editor into the Class Forum message.

• Introduce yourself (name, nationality, physical and general description) and greet the teacher (as you have learned in lesson b_1, Dialogue and Cultural Tidbit and lesson b_2, exercises 3, 4, 5).
• In exercise 9 and exercise 10, Lessons b_1, you practice introductions and greetings. Imagine you are at a party in Italy and you meet two interesting persons: write greetings and introductions among the three of you.
  In exercise 9, Lessons b_2, you practice descriptions. Describe "la festa" (the party). See which of the following adjectives can be useful to describe it: "bella, noiosa, simpatica, brutta, calma, rumorosa, affollata, deserta". Check the online dictionary if you need.
• Watch the following video and describe "il Pantheon" (the Pantheon). See which of the following adjectives can be useful for your description: "grande, piccolo, rotondo, quadrato, alto, basso, antico, moderno, vecchio, nuovo, bello, brutto, largo, stretto":
  
  The Pantheon (from Greek Πάνθεον Pantheon, meaning "Temple of all the Gods") is a famous building in Rome which was originally built in 27 BC as a temple to the seven deities of the seven planets in the state religion of Ancient Rome. It is the best-preserved of all Roman buildings. The round oculus admits the only light (and rain).

If you have questions about this session post them in the Class Forum or Ask the Prof.

When you are ready, move on to the next session.

Arrivederci!
