Your child’s brain is like a tree.

Before age eight, 80% of your child’s neurological pathways have been formed. Any neurological pathways that aren’t being used when your child is young will be pruned.  Take advantage of this learning explosion by exposing your child to a second language through U-GRO’s Spanish program!

Offered at the following schools as an added benefit at no additional cost: Bent Creek, Brethren Village, Hempfield, Lebanon, Union Deposit, York, and TecPort.

Hola!

Benefits of learning a second language at an early age:

• Being able to communicate with people from other countries and cultures gives children a global perspective.
• Boost brain power! Research shows learning a second language enhances intellectual development and improves overall school performance.
• Children who learn a second language have more advanced problem solving skills and a clearer understanding of English structure and vocabulary.
• The younger you start, the easier it is to learn languages with native-like pronunciation. Children are learning a language anyways so their brains are geared for it!
• Adults who are fluent in a foreign language often have better career opportunities than those who aren’t.

Spanish Program Highlights:

• Weekly Spanish Instruction.  Children will learn basic Spanish vocabulary such as, greetings, colors, numbers, and shapes.
• Implemented within your child’s current preschool or pre-kindergarten classroom (3 & 4 year olds).
• U-GRO teachers will enhance Spanish learning by incorporating language practice into the daily curriculum.
