Middle school Italian class students showcase their display of the Abruzzo region of Italy.

Eighth graders at Locust Valley Middle School traveled through many Italian regions from the comfort of the mini-theater on Feb. 9. Each group created a trifold poster about their region, researched a famous regional dish and its history, built a diorama of a notable city and made a 3D model of a famous monument. While circulating, students answered questions, shared their research with visitors and sampled the local cuisines.
