Join us in celebrating Italian language and culture, as well as our students' creativity, during our Giornata dell'italiano!
MITA is proud to sponsor this event which brings together about 150 secondary school students and teachers of Italian in Massachusetts for an Italian language competition held on a local higher education campus. The event plays an important role in promoting the study of Italian and creating connections between colleges and universities with high-school students and faculty.
La Giornata dell'Italiano is a great opportunity for colleges and universities to showcase their Italian programs and connect with high-school students and faculty. This year, the event will take place at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA.
Participating schools are invited to create a 10-15 minute skit or other performance in Italian based on a topic chosen by the organizing committee. The topic can be presented in various forms, including a song, skit, interview, dance with dialogue, impersonation, narrative, or advertisement. A panel of judges will evaluate each school's performance and vote for the three best ones.

REGOLAMENTO
The competition is open to all high schools levels, but be aware that there will be no division of levels in the evaluating process (ex. if a colleague brings a level 2 class, they may be competing with someone’s AP class).
• Each teacher may bring up to 20 students plus 2 chaperones.
• The oral component must be an original piece written and performed live by the students.
• Not every student from each school is required to be in the performance, but each school must be represented by some form of presentation.
• The top 3 high school performances will be awarded prizes for their schools.
• Performances must be 5-10 minutes long and cannot exceed the 20 minutes time limit.
• Each school is responsible for bringing their own props/music/audio.
To participate in the program, groups must select their topic and plan their performance. Because this is a very broad theme , it allows for much creativity. Please, be selective when choosing your topic!
Lunch will be offered to all participants and their chaperons!
