Ecco Pinocchio – Here is Pinocchio

by 08210331ops on July 13, 2016

The students are spending the start of this term learning about the parts of the body. We are reading, reflecting and singing about a cute story titled ‘Ecco Pinocchio’. We have a lovely Pinocchio puppet in our room at the moment. He brings lots of joy and laughter to our lessons.

The prep students are being introduced to these words – eyes (occhi), hands (mani), nose (naso), legs (gambe) and mouth (bocca). The grade 1 students are revising these words and adding five new words to their vocabulary – head (testa), ears (orecchie), hair (capelli), stomach (stomaco) and feet (piedi).

Feel free to use this You Tube clip titled ‘Il corpo – Italian body parts’ to explore these words and more. I have placed a link to it under You Tube clips on the right of our blog page.
