Sample activities
You will find a bank of sample activities which you can use to
practise the vocabulary in the classroom.
This is not a prescriptive list of activities and you can use or
adapt them to suit the needs of your class.

Talking about yourself.
Come ti chiami?
Clapping game
• All pupils sit in a circle and clap time to the
question Come ti chiami? (or whichever version of
the question you are using with your class). They
do this whilst also passing a toy around the circle.
• Pupils clap the question 3 times and whoever is
holding the toy when they stop must then say their
name in Italian e.g. Io mi chiamo Tony.
• The class can then all answer, “Buongiorno Tony!”
and continue with the game.
• To say let’s continue – it’s “Continuiamo!”
Testa giu` e pollice in alto

This is, “heads down, thumbs up!”
In a circle or at desks, pupils lie down or put their heads
down on the table and lift their thumbs up. You can amend
this according to the class.
3 pupils circulate amongst them, choose a pupil and put their
thumbs down.
Once time is up, the 3 who were chosen stand up, the whole
class ask “Chi e`?” or “Chi c’e`”and they then have to say
which pupil chose them by saying E` Paul (for example).
The pupils in question can then say Si or No depending on if
they are correct or not.
Whoever guesses correctly then gets to choose for the next
round.
Puppet play
Teacher can perform a puppet play for pupils with two puppets
(sock puppets for example). Here is an example script:
Puppet 1: (Pokes head out from behind teacher’s back)
Buongiorno!Buongiorno a tutti!
Class: Buongiorno!
Puppet 1: Come stai?
Class: Sto bene!
Puppet can then ask pupils their names and Come stai?
Puppet 2 then appears
Puppet 2: Buongiorno a tutti!
Class: Buongiorno!
Puppet 1: Chi e`?
Class can then ask puppet 2 what their name is.
Puppet 2: Io mi chiamo___. E tu? Come ti chaimi? (to puppet 1. (get class
to repeat the question).
Puppet 1: Io mi chiamo.

This is exactly the same as musical
statues but with a Italian twist!
Play some Italian music and pupils
dance.
As soon as the music stops, they
must freeze and then turn to the
person nearest to them and have a
short conversation which could
include:
Buongiorno, Come stai?
Come ti chiami? Io mi chiamo___
and arrivederci!
This could be much shorter and just
use the name.
