Nosotros Hablamos Espanol

The goal of Kent School’s Lower School Spanish curriculum is to prepare students for a successful immersion program when they reach Middle School. Kent School introduces Spanish Language instruction in Little School where children learn basic vocabulary through songs and stories. That approach is continued on a spiraling basis in Kindergarten through Grade 4. Students become familiar with hearing, seeing and speaking Spanish language words, phrases and songs. We deliberately take an introductory approach to Spanish Language instruction in Lower School in order to serve students who join our community in these grades. New students will be able to join in our program and catch up with current students relatively quickly.
