Today’s Italian exercises cover basic ‘school’ vocabulary: eraser, pencil, whiteboard and so on.
Mostly it won’t have changed since you were a pupil, which might have been many decades ago.
Except maybe that whiteboards were black, back then…
But this type of basic vocabulary is always useful – especially if you plan on attend an Italian school at some point.
You’ll be able to impress everyone by admitting you didn’t bring your ‘matita’ and asking whether someone could lend you something to ‘scrivere’ with.
(I had a student like this last night, in the first lesson of a class preparing for a university entrance exam: oh, do I need to write notes??)
Anyway, here you go, four fun exercises to while away a rainy Friday.

Colin says
Always love your content but isn’t this title a bit creepy…?
Daniel says
Guess that depends on what creeps you out, Colin.
I was thinking of the classic blues track (http://www.metrolyrics.com/good-morning-little-school-girl-lyrics-sonny-boy-williamson-i.html) covered also by the Grateful Dead.
Sexy, passionate, rebellious were the words that came to mind.
There’s a also a joke there, somewhere.
