Ciao!
Come stai? Mi chiamo Alfredo e abito a Roma. E tu, come ti chiami? Ho tredici anni e mi piace il computer. Quanti anni hai? Ho una grande famiglia — tre fratelli e una sorella, e anche mamma e papà. Mia nonna ha novant’anni ed è in gamba! Hai fratelli e sorelle? Com’è la tua famiglia?
Mia sorella si chiama Marcella e ha diciannove anni. Non è molto simpatica, ma è molto sportiva. Adora il calcio e tifa per la Fiorentina, la squadra di calcio di Firenze. Io adoro la Lazio. Papà odia il calcio, ma adora il basket americano. Ti piace il calcio?
Mi piace la scuola, ma non sono molto bravo e qualche volta sono pigro. La matematica è difficile — che disastro! Mia mamma è brava in matematica e lavora in banca. Ti piace la scuola? Il mio professore d’inglese è serio, ma è anche spiritoso. Com’è il tuo professore d’italiano?
Basta! Adesso tocca a te!Alfredo

Che famiglia strana!The producers at a local television network are running a competition. Entrants need to create the characters for a family that will be in a new television series. You could be the creator of the next Simpsons family! Use drawing or mind map computer-software programs (such as PhotoShop or Inspiration) to create a family tree for your TV series family. For each family member, give their name and age, and describe their personality. Write a draft and ask your teacher to check it before you create your final version. You could include photographs or drawings for each character to enhance your written descriptions.
