Pine Village Spanish Immersion Preschool (mybiliginualpreschool.com) today announces a new 6-week Saturday program for 3-7 year olds to build their Spanish language skills, Juntos Conectamos (Together We Connect). The class, which focuses on introducing Spanish vocabulary, team building skills, conflict resolution and fostering healthy peer relationships, begins on Saturday, February 21st and will run through March 28th.

The Juntos Conectamos program is designed for children with minimal to moderate Spanish language exposure to build and grow their Spanish-speaking skills.

The curriculum consists of weekly topics including, Empathy, Self-Awareness (breathing techniques), Care/Friendship, Awareness of Others (sharing/turn-taking/trading), Conflict Resolution (expressive language) and Teamwork.

“We’re excited to offer this new Saturday programming for children who want exposure to the Spanish language, but might not have the opportunity during the week,” says Emma LaVecchia, co-founder of Pine Village. “We’ve designed the program to nurture a passion for learning in each child and build excitement around the Spanish language and culture.”
