Escuelita Caracol

 

This page is for our Friday schedule.  For our Thursday schedule, please CLICK HERE.

Escuelita Caracol is a Parent and Me Spanish Immersion Program, through Makersville, for TK-1st grade. Parent participation and engagement is fully required, as this contributes to the immersion process and will increase the child’s ability to learn Spanish. 

Children will be immersed in Spanish through songs, games, storytelling and a complementary art activity. This fall’s theme is North American Indigenous Creation Stories. To better create a sense of community our schedule includes opportunity for free play and Convivios, enjoying our snacks and lunch together.  If it’s within your means we welcome sharing of finger foods like strawberries, pretzels, cheese cubes, etc…

 

Class meets every Friday 10am-1pm starting Sept. 13, 2019 to Jan. 31, 2020. Location subject to change. 

(No class 11/29, 12/20, 12/27, 1/3, 1/10).
