Learn Spanish with Honeoye Falls-Lima Community Ed!
SPANISH FOR THE ELEMENTARY YEARS is an educationally oriented fun and interactive program designed specifically for the K–5 elementary student. The unique six-week curriculum features foundation vocabulary introduced through games, singing and hands-on activities. Students are able to compound words and begin forming simple sentences. Classes are never a repeat! Three different sessions are offered during the school year. New vocabulary and activities are introduced with each 6-week session! Returning students continue expanding their vocabulary base and new students begin building their vocabulary base. The program consists of a 5-year rotation of lesson plans! New and returning students can join. Research studies indicate the benefits of introducing foreign language skills at an early age! Early introduction increases the student’s ability to absorb rather than translate the language. Join the fun!
