Immersion French Class for Kids 2-6 in Chevy Chase

Saturdays 9:00- 9:55am
From January 5th to March 16th (no class January 19th).
10 sessions for $220

We offer two groups: Moineaux for 20 months to 4 years and Poussins for 4 to 6 years.

Class Description
- Children will be immersed in the language though playful activities, songs, dances, stories, games, and more. Parents or caregivers can contribute by encouraging the children. Arts and crafts will develop the fine motor abilities of the children. Interaction with puppets will make learning French really fun!
- The class is in full immersion and therefore suited for French or English-speaking children. At a young age, children are very intuitive and beginners will learn fast. French-speaking children will talk and interact more, while English speakers will need more time to pronounce the words, but they understand very fast.
Babies and toddlers will build new vocabulary through puppets, images, songs and situations in the same way they are building these skills with their language spoken at home. Older children will start with some activities developing more fine motor skills.

Typical program:
Greetings, songs and dance
Meeting our friends (Monsieur nez rouge, ...)
Talk, sing and dance
Story time and little craft/image project/ written activities
Au revoir!

Every quarter we cover seasonal themes and topics children love (animals, food, family, fairy tales...)

The Pro's:
+ We recreate an authentic language environment (no flash cards methodology!)
+ Teachers are native speakers (no accent!) and experienced with small children
+ Child focused approach
