"Language is not a genetic gift, it is a social gift. Learning a new language is becoming a member of the club -the community of speakers of that language."
- Frank Smith
INTERESTED IN GIVING YOUR CHILD THE GIFT OF A SECOND LANGUAGE?
Libélula Spanish School is more than just a mother's day out program. We offer a safe, home environment in which children can learn the Spanish language through songs, stories, and most importantly play!
Our programs are perfect for English-speaking students with little or no knowledge of Spanish.
We are best described as a foreign language school. The vast majority of our circle time songs are fully bilingual and the preschool content is presented bilingually. We learn one or two new Spanish words during our daily theme circle time. Most of our story books are read predominately in English with a significant portion of the text being translated into Spanish with an emphasis on the current theme-based vocabulary. We watch Spanish-language videos and shows and listen to music in Spanish. Most of our students speak English in the home so the teacher incorporates Spanish into the student interactions through translating, narrating, and labeling in Spanish during organic student play.
Our ultimate ideal goal is to help your child achieve a solid foundation in Spanish through our preschool program and expand it through our after school elementary Spanish classes.
Here are some features which make our school special:
