I am so excited about what my project is becoming. Last time, I said I wanted to be done learning by March 13th, but that didn't happen. Although, I think I can finish by the end of March. I have learned past tense verbs so I can begin writing. All this time, I have been developing plot and even picking out phrases I'd like to use when I am learning. But, I am most excited about being able to understand Italian. The other day, I was listening to "The Prayer" by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli and I actually knew what they were saying in Italian without having to look it up. I think that my whole book plot and accomplishments will excite other people because the Holocaust was so tragic and having an 8th grader write a short book about it in a language they didn't start learning until the beginning of the school year will just take everyone's breath away. I can't wait to know 100% of Italian and have 100% of a book complete.
