What are the benefits of a Foreign Language Enhanced/ Immersion Programs?

Studies have shown that when children are introduced to a second language at an early age, they learn it easier, faster, and their pronunciation is more native sounding. Researchers have discovered that children who learn foreign languages in preschool tend to have a higher level of success in other scholastic areas later in life. 
 


Children build stronger cognitive abilities. It increases their creativity in verbal and mathematical problem-solving skills. Children also become more aware and open to other cultures, therefore  preparing them for a better life in an ever-increasing globalized world. Finally, they will gain access to greater future career opportunities. 

What is the best age to introduce a new language?


Children who begin learning a language before the age of five are much more likely to have native-like pronunciation. Learning of a second language has tremendous educational benefits for children.
-Improved School Performance
-Increased Creativity
-Better at Solving Complex Problems


 What type of curriculum does TERRA VIVA's  Spanish enhanced program offer?

Our native Spanish teachers speak the language throughout the day and mainly at circle times . The children's first introduction to the new language is via commands which reinforce daily routines. For example: tuck in your chair, wash your hands, put your work away.

How will my child understand what is happening in class? 

Children will learn Spanish the same way  they learn their  first language. Teachers will use songs, facial gestures, hand and body signals, and games. This teaching method is known as Total Physical Response.
