Introduction
Italian II Honors
This course is designed for students who have successfully completed Italian I, and who have demonstrated excellence in the language.
The course will delve deeper into certain grammatical topics, and will place a stronger emphasis on speaking the target language. Italian II
Honors will examine more topics, move at a quicker pace, and cover more material than Italian II. The course will aim to improve all aspects of
foreign language learning – reading, writing, speaking, and listening comprehension.

STANDARDS AND PROGRESS INDICATORS
The Italian II Honors curriculum has been developed to align with the NJCCCS (New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards) revised and
adopted in April 2004.
Standard 7.1
ALL STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE AT A BASIC LITERACY LEVEL IN ITALIAN.
Descriptive Statement: Meaningful communication is the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information through speech, gestures, behavior,
or a combination of these. It is through communication that we express ourselves and transmit or receive information. For these exchanges to be
meaningful, students need to communicate about, understand, and interpret written or spoken language on a variety of topics in the language
studied. The key to successful communication is knowing how, when and why to say what to whom. The standard thus focuses on interpersonal
communication.
Cumulative Progress Indicators
Building upon knowledge and skills gained in the preceding grades, by the end of Italian II Honors, students:
1. Create and respond to phrases, questions, and sentences.
2. Describe people, places, things, and events in detail.
3. Interact with appropriate responses in limited social settings and situations.
4. Express details of their everyday lives and past experiences.
5. Engage in original and spontaneous conversations in Italian.
6. Organize thoughts into coherent oral speech.
Italian II Honors Curriculum

7. Express thoughts in a variety of tenses including the present, past participle, imperfect, imperative, and conditional.
Standard 7.2
ALL STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERRELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN ITALIAN LANGUAGE AND ITALIAN CULTURE.
Descriptive Statement: The acquisition of another language focuses attention on how language and culture interact. This interaction helps
students reflect on cultural patterns and thus gain insight into their own language and culture. Exploration of a new culture helps students to frame
issues about their own world view while investigating another. Comparing and contrasting languages and cultures promotes cross-cultural
discourse and understanding which are at the heart of the humanities.
Cumulative Progress Indicators:
Building upon knowledge and skills gained in the preceding grades, by the end of Italian II Honors, students:
1. Compare the customs of their own culture and the Italian culture.
2. Understand the role of stereotyping in forming and sustaining prejudice.
3. Demonstrate an awareness of the contributions made in many fields by Italians as well as Italian-Americans.
4. Examine interrelationships between the Italian language and culture as evidences in literary works.
