Spanish Enrichment Program K-5
SPANISH FOR CHILDREN (K-5th Grade)
Service Description
Our After School Spanish immersion program is specially designed for children in Kindergarten through 5th grade with classes organized into age-based groups. Classes are held once a week or either Tuesday or Thursday. For those seeking more immersive learning, we suggest the option to attend twice a week. *Placement and Proficiency To ensure that every child is placed in the right group, we conduct an initial interview and assessment. Students are placed according to their proficiency level using the ACTFL Proficiency Scale, which ranges from Novice to Superior. *Year-Round Program with Summer Camps Our Spanish Immersion Program runs continuously throughout the year. During the summer, we also offer enriching Summer Camp sessions. For optimal language development, we encourage ongoing participation, as consistent practice and feedback are crucial for long-term success in language acquisition. Enrollment is flexible, you may enroll at any time if availability permits. Tuition will be prorated based on your enrollment date. *Why Choose Us? Our approach blends proven strategies from my experience by leading successful Bilingual and Dual Language classrooms in local school districts with over 450 hours of professional development and research, primarily through Region 4. We apply the latest findings on language acquisition, emphasizing hands-on activities, TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling), and TPR (Total Physical Response). Additionally, we focus on developing executive functions, which are key predictors of academic success. I am a fully certified TEA EC-6 Bilingual teacher at Texas Education Agency, a member of the Houston Storytelling Guild, and the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. - Small class sizes: We maintain small group sizes to ensure an optimal student-to-teacher ratio and differentiate instruction. - Comprehensive Materials: A one-time $60 educational materials fee is required at registration and again when students advance to the next level. This fee covers new instructional materials and resources. Acquiring and immersing in a second language provides numerous cognitive benefits, including enhanced problem-solving skills and divergent thinking. Give your child the lifelong gift of bilingualism and biliteracy!
