Train Up a Child in The Way He Should go, And When He is Old, He Will Not Depart From it - Provabs 22:6
The Language Tree is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, multi-language immersion preschool, offering both French and Spanish. Our Preschool provides a warm, safe and academically-challenging learning environment where children ages 2-6 can discover the magic of a second language and develop their love of learning. We develop the whole child by focusing on each child’s social, emotional, physical and cognitive development. The school works by utilizing half-day language classes and then moving the children into enrichment class during the other half of the day. Upon graduation from our program, our students can continue their language journey with our weekly after school Graduate Class until age 10. Using low ratios and native-speaking lead teachers, language is central to the learning process, and students develop their vocabulary through experiences with real-life objects and people. Both teachers and students speak French or Spanish throughout the day, resulting in students who speak with accuracy and fluency. Language learning is taught specifically as part of academic lessons and through storytelling, visual aids, repetition, singing, and playtime. Young children’s minds are like sponges absorbing language. Inside of a few days’ time, they understand and react to French or Spanish terms. Inside of a few weeks, they are comfortable speaking and repeating. From this point on, given continued exposure, their language abilities grow exponentially.
