The Italian Club and Scholars Italian
by Katherine Carr
Since sixth grade at York Prep, I have been participating in the Italian Club and the Italian Scholars Program. In sixth grade, there was no Scholars Italian Class so we formed a club under the supervision of Ms. Rhodes and we would learn basic vocabulary. Also, we would translate sentences from Italian into English. Once Ms. Rhodes left the school, everyone was sad and heartbroken. The Italian Club turned into a Scholars class that was led by Ms. Salerno. Since participating in the Italian Club and Scholars Class, I have been conversing with my family in Italian!

We recently learned how to describe ourselves in Italian and wrote sentences. These were a few of my sentences:
Io ho i capelli biondi y lunghi.
(I have long and blonde hair.)
Io ho gli occhi azzurri.
(I have blue eyes.)
Io sono nata a New York City.
(I was born in New York City.)
These are a few basic vocabulary words I learned:
Nonna → grandmother
Sorella → sister
Padre/ L’uomo → father
El zucherro → the sugar
