Desktop Drum Set

Day 249 of My Italian Learning Journal*

_____________________

One the students who is graduating at our high school is a percussionist, and he invited me to his graduation party. So, I thought about giving him a miniature drum set for his graduation present, along with a gift card. I found the item at amazon.com and placed an order. I think this miniature drum set will be a reminder of his days at our high school and our school band, as he moves on to our local university. (Corrections for any part of my practice Italian script below are welcome.)

Ascolta Questo:

• Uno dei nostri studenti laureati è un batterista nella nostra banda musicale della scuola.
  One of our graduating students is a drummer in our school marching band.

• Gli darò una batteria in miniatura come regalo di laurea; più una carta regalo.
  I will give him a miniature drum set as a graduation gift; plus a gift card.

• Forse la batteria gli ricorderà del suo tempo nella nostra banda musicale della scuola.
  Perhaps the small drum set will remind him of his time in our school marching band.

Alla prossima!
