Organising a party

Develop people and relationships through a focused vocabulary itinerary.

The situation

A group of friends organise a party and divide the practical tasks.

  • Sabato organizziamo una festa per Giulia.· On Saturday we are organising a party for Giulia.
  • La invitiamo senza dirle della sorpresa.· We will invite her without telling her about the surprise.
  • Io compro le bevande e le porto a casa tua.· I will buy the drinks and bring them to your house.
  • A Marco scrivo io: gli mando un messaggio.· I will write to Marco: I will send him a message.

Target language in context

The goal is to talk about social relationships and replace repeated objects with pronouns. Read the models first for meaning, then notice the forms that carry the message.

  • Conosci i suoi amici del lavoro?· Do you know her friends from work?
  • Sì, li conosco e posso invitarli.· Yes, I know them and I can invite them.
  • Ci serve aiuto con la musica.· We need help with the music.
  • Chiedo a Paolo: gli piace fare il DJ.· I will ask Paolo: he likes being the DJ.
