Learnin' bouts the Italians and Popes

Today was a class day so we spent the morning in Italian and afternoon in Mary's history class.
In Italian class with Mary, Marco and I worked on reading chapter nine of A Ciascuno il Suo, where we learn in the story more about the politics of Sicily in the 60s, and the plot thickens when they go to talk with the widow of the friend who was murdered.
In the Italidea class the girls learned about adjectives and descriptions, and took a field trip out to Farnese and Campo dei Fiori to describes sights... in Italian! Brava.

Later on we had class with Signora Mary, where we learned about Pope Sixtus and looked at some of his commissions, and began an quick introduction on Machiavelli for next week.

After class, since we had a 3-day weekend, everyone got ready for their trips to Prague, Istanbul, and Lyon!
