World Languages Curriculum

We have developed our World Languages curriculum using TPRS method (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling). We have used this technique for several years with enormous success. Instead of having to study and memorize large lists of vocabulary and grammar, the students are able to learn the vocabulary and the structures through stories, a much more natural way to learn and precisely the way every native speaker learns to speak in his/her language.

Movies, short stories, poems, games, and songs are included at each level. Each provides the students with a moral lesson, and/or cultural, geographical, or historical background.

Students are engaged through gestures, acting, and visual content, causing them to "own" and use the language, and providing a deeper, more meaningful learning experience.
