We offer a variety of fun and interesting classes at every age level. See individual class descriptions below, organized by age/grade level.
Class Descriptions
Pre-K and Kindergarten
Ages: 0 to 5 with a caregiver
Description: In this fun, Spanish-immersion music class, we sing, dance and play in Spanish with your little one in a fun, welcoming environment for Spanish-speakers and Spanish-learners alike.
This class uses the Canta y Baila Conmigo Family curriculum. Each semester, we learn a collection of about 30 songs from around the Spanish-speaking world. Each family gets a full color song book, a CD, a download code for the music and access to an online Family Playground to keep the music making going at home.
For the 2026-2027 school year, we are planning to offer a new pre-K option for four year olds and young fives during our regular program day from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
We expect the program day to look something like this:
10:30 a.m. - gentle morning activity while student arrive
10:45 a.m. - calendar time and morning routines moving into a preschool Spanish class
11:45 a.m. - lunch in the classroom
12:15 p.m. - centers time - various learning stations set up to rotate through
1:00 p.m. - play, rest time or recess
1:45 p.m. - Spanish music and movement class with Señora Cottrell
2:30 p.m. - pickup
We will have more details ready to share soon. Tuition will be the same as for our other classes - $900 for the year. Please note that homeschool partnerships do not cover four year olds.
Ages: 5 - 6 years
Description: Our kindergarten students spend two class periods with veteran kindergarten immersion teacher, Señora Andino, getting a wonderful introduction to the Spanish language in an immersion environment.
Sample topics: Colors, numbers, letters, classroom concepts (raising your hand, standing, sitting, taking turns), animals, size and more.
Ages: 5 to 6 years
Description: Our kindergarten music and movement class brings Spanish alive through movement, dance, games, songs and activities. We use Canta y Baila Conmigo's En La Escuela curriculum, full of fun songs that will build their musical and language skills at the same time. Families get a download code to listen to the music at home, as well as a songbook with activities.
Sample topics: Movement verbs (running, walking, jumping, etc.) and concepts (fast/slow, high/low), instruments, concepts related to the songs we sing such as animals, parts of the body and more.
Elementary and Middle School Classes
Grades: Kindergarten through 8th grade
Descriptions: These casual, fun groups meet during our 9:30 hour to provide a bit more Spanish for families who are interested or need an earlier morning start time. Groups are divided by age and ability.
Sample topics/activities: Activities are designed with the age and ability of the students registered, but often include games, songs and fun activities. For younger students this time is spent doing typical play activities such as Bingo or Uno, reading books or learning songs. Parents and students are encouraged to share with the teacher/leader the types of things they would like to be learning or even bring in your own activities or curriculum.
During our first class period, our students are divided by age and language level for a Spanish language class. Each class is developmentally appropriate, using books and projects that engage and interest the students as they develop their language skills.
Within groups based on their age and language level, students will learn about countries around the Spanish-speaking world through traditional arts and famous artists by making weekly projects through a variety art forms.
Within groups based on their age and language level, students will learn through active play, strategy, and teamwork, learning about sports, learning playground games, and playing tabletop games including cards, board games, and puzzles.
Within groups based on their age and language level, students will experience the music and traditions of Spanish-speaking countries through interactive drumming, music making, cultural activities, and movement games.
Within groups based on their age and language level, students in Creative Lab will enjoy STEM-style learning through experiments and challenges using Spanish through hands-on activities.
During the last period of the day, students will explore multiple topics throughout the year, spending 5-6 weeks with each teacher before rotating to a new subject. The exact rotation schedule will be determined once enrollment is finalized. Our final list of classes is TBD, but expect fun topics such as lego architecture, readers theater, cooking, pinewood derby, origami, weaving or other fun hands-on activities. Got a suggestion? We’d love to hear it!
