¡Hola! Welcome to our World Language Program! In this global era,
language acquisition skills have become an essential asset that promotes
communication among the cultures of the world. At The Phillips Brooks
School, our World Language Program focuses both on teaching the Spanish language and on deepening the students' understanding of the
cultures where this language is spoken in the US and abroad. Our program
ensures that extensive vocabulary is taught in a meaningful and
developmentally appropriate way and that it is reinforced from one unit to
the next. We rely on various multi-sensory methods, including TPR (Total
Physical Response), to build vocabulary skills by connecting words to
specific actions. In addition, we incorporate music, skits and kinesthetic
activities in our lessons in order to reach students with varying learning
styles.
