Full-Time PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Libélula Spanish School offers full-time care, which includes participation in the same part-time educational program described in our Preschool Program page. A different lesson is taught Monday through Thursday. No new content is presented on Fridays.
Our circle time includes fully bilingual songs, the introduction of one or two new Spanish words daily, English-language story books with Spanish strategically infused throughout, and self-guided student activities into which the teacher incorporates Spanish into the student interactions through translating, narrating, and labeling in Spanish. We learn a new shape, number, and color monthly and new letter weekly. We watch Spanish-language movies and shows daily during our lunch prep/potty break period of the day. We are not an immersion-based school.
- Ages 3 months to 5 years
- We work with parents to help potty train
- Low teacher/student ratios mean more one-on-one time
- Monthly themed curriculum, including themes such as Harvest, Texas, and Fairy Tales
- Circle Time, which introduces vocabulary and concepts, then playtime to utilize them
- All meals provided in adherence to state regulated food program
- Program conducted in accordance with state child care licensing standards as a registered in-home preschool
