3. We'll go over together next week the handout: "Mani, piedi, occhi..."

4. Read the ivory handout: Un viaggio a Roma. Take this dialogue as an example, and make up your own. You don't have to vary it that much. In this dialogue, Laura and Luigi have gone to Rome, and they're telling Chiara about their trip. One way you could vary this might be: (for example in the last paragraph) if you were travelling by yourself, "Sono partita da Firenze ieri nella mattina con una macchina. Sono arrivata a Pisa proprio in tempo per il pranzo...."

5. Parole da ricordare at the end of the chapter: pages 141, 142. Make up some sentences to ask each other next time about what you want to order in the bar, or write a paragraph about what you ordered in the bar. Try to memorize as many of these words as you can.

"Ciao ciao! Ci vediamo presto!"
