Triết lý

At Las Abejitas Bilingual Education Center, we believe that each child is unique and we meet them where they are, developmentally, socially, and cognitively. We foster a love of lifelong learning and provide a safe, nurturing environment for children to develop socially, emotionally, and cognitively. Our bilingual program enhances their understanding of the world and promotes brain development.

Về chương trình của chúng tôi

English/Spanish language acquisition is a key goal for our program. Early childhood education is the perfect time to introduce a second language in a natural, consistent manner. At this age, language is attained more passively, through play and socialization. Babies and young children form neural connections at a much faster pace, allowing them to learn a second language much more quickly than older children and adults. Children will have two main teachers throughout their day: one who speaks mostly English, and one who speaks mostly Spanish. Our teachers will start with simple language, using clear, concise speech, pictures, actions, and repetition. Students will be taught preschool curriculum in both languages, engaging with the materials in many different ways: speaking, listening, drawing, creating, manipulating, and playing.
