Spanish Immersion for Kids 4 - 17 (Different Levels/Classes on Website)


*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 12/31/2021
In every TruFluency Kids 4-week session, we have 2-3 themes that we touch on. During the discussion of these themes, we will focus on being able to express ourselves in Spanish in regards to this theme. We will always encourage speaking, while also increasing listening comprehension. Classes grouped by ages. Over 100 class schedule options weekly. Starting at $12. Courses come with at home videos to use outside of class. Always LIVE native speaking instructors.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Complete beginners or those who know some phrases. No experience necessary. WATCH A VIDEO HERE. 

This is considered A1 - A2 beginner/upper beginner Spanish.

Every 4 weeks, we change themes and curriculum year round, so we talk about a different aspect of conversation every month. This allows children to get confident speaking on themes, just like in real life.

Conversation level will be adjusted depending on the level of each student or the group as a whole. Rest easy - we meet your child exactly where they are so that the environment is fun and relaxed.

In every TruFluency Kids 4-week session, we have 2-3 themes that we touch on. During the discussion of these themes, we will focus on being able to express ourselves in Spanish in regards to this theme. We will always encourage speaking, while also increasing listening comprehension. Activities in class include, but not limited to: learning songs that have a grammar focus (but the kids don't know that, they just sing!), drawing, writing, guessing games with points, computer games that you’ll get access to, word games, song games (singing, dancing, movement activities), or even Get Up And Go game to learn commands and move around for 5 minutes each class. Also, lots of questions to get them speaking Spanish. We use The Bellieu Method for fluency, which upholds speaking, relevant material, interesting topics and letting the student be the focus of the class for ultimate engagement.

Week 1 : We will go over new vocabulary (3-6 words at a time) and play an online, dynamic, computer game or song to solidify their usage - you’ll also get free access to this game or song at home. We will apply these words to a colorful video with a song that uses those same words. We will apply choreography to help us remember those words as well. We will give you the link to the video and the link to a game or challenge or worksheet so that you can work on it during your free time.

Week 2 : We will learn 3- 6 more words and complete phrases from the song and learn them more thoroughly through number games, guessing games, hangman, drawing games and various other activities. We will continue to learn the new lyrics to the song and apply those words in short conversations with assistance from the native speaking teacher. We will send home a FUN worksheet that you can put on your fridge to help you remember to use the new words in everyday conversations.

Week 3 : We will finalize the knowledge of applying the choreography or hand movements to the song and learn the final 10 words. We will give them quizzes (via games!) to ensure words are learned. We will continue to practice the short conversations with assistance from the teacher. Small competitions to engage and encourage will be held as well. Get access to a Spanish craft or worksheet on our website that you can do in the evening or on the weekends.

Week 4 : We will do a short story game based on the original song and video. We will continue to practice the conversations and get more confident with those. We will give you access to the short story as well so that you may read at home. Work on an extra worksheet at home with your kiddos to help tie in the information learned.

24/7 access to all of our music videos, computer games, worksheets, crafts and more.

Every month we will build fluency, confidence speaking, and their ability to understand the spoken language like a native speaker.
