School-aged children
Interested in
having
the whole family can learn Spanish at the same time? Academia Falcon has developed its own elementary
Spanish
immersion program especially for children aged 6-12.
Over 120 children learn Spanish with us each year. Our kids
program consists of three hours a day at beginner,
intermediate and advanced levels, and makes full use of
games, visual materials, videos, popular songs, “rondas” and
lots of practice. The program also includes 2 hours per week
of interaction with Mexican children. This allows for
greater immersion, not only in the Spanish language, but
also in Mexican culture. Children also take part in
celebrations such as “Día de los Reyes”, “Día del Niño” and
traditional customs such as “Posadas”.
