Thursday marked the beginning of our first 3 day weekend! The agenda for the day consisted of an Italian lesson and service learning. Aurora presented a lesson about feminine/masculine singular and plural nouns. I loved her approach. She worked off of food items that are found on typical Italian menus. For instance, ‘lo zucchero’ or sugar is singular and ‘gli zuccheri’ is plural. We were also taught a couple of short phrases such as “lo puoi riscaldare?” or “can you warm it up?” and “e lonatno” or “is that far?” As well as the four seasons and the Italian words for ‘brother and sister’.
After our Italian lesson, many members were uncertain whether to attend service learning due to a strike that many drivers of public transportation participated in. We decided to not risk arriving late to our sites and called our contacts notifying them about the sudden change of plans.
I took advantage of my service learning time to prepare for my weekend trip to BARCELONA with eight other friends J I’m looking very forward to this trip! I’ll have the chance to speak Spanish, devour Hispanic food and relax on the beach! Ariverderci amici!
