Educational details

Educational value
  • This is a highly valuable resource for the Communicating and Understanding strands of the Italian language curriculum for years 3 to 8. It supports learning how to write simple letters and the way Italian addresses are organised and, indirectly, the system of Italian provinces and regions.
  • This resource is of value for comparing the most common niceties used in Italian written communication with the ones used in English (eg 'caro' or 'cara', and 'saluti') and to notice how these expressions may have taken a new form in the digital era.
