Classes

Whether your child is in a Dual-Language Spanish Program, is a native Spanish speaker, or is curious about the Spanish language and would like to start learning–our teacher’s will find a place of fun and joy in the classroom setting. Learn through play-based engagement with songs, movement games, and thoughtful and complex art projects that are fueled by the children’s individual interests and preferences. Children may be seen building a circus out of blocks, using papier-mâché to make a planet of their own, learning stop-motion animation, creating their own mask and embodying a character, exploring how water moves in a class-made river, and creating a 3D art piece about water pollution.

The daily schedule therefore includes a balance of stimulating and relaxing developmentally appropriate activities. Outdoor activities will take place in the neighborhood parks and playgrounds.

After School Spanish Brightworks Tuesday & Thursday

The Spanish language is taught naturally in this all-immersive Spanish environment and through the various themes and projects; however, direct Spanish instruction happens through visual language games and projects that emphasize specific Spanish vocabulary and grammar structures.

Children of all levels and Spanish-speaking backgrounds are encouraged to speak Spanish naturally while engaged in captivating workshops designed to both educate and entertain. Our integrated approach specifically engages the child in lively and creative activities to enhance developmentally appropriate skills in a foreign language. We believe in a supportive and encouraging learning environment where children feel a part of our learning community and are prepared to take risks in a safe-space.
