Present After-School Language Classes At
The Arlington Public Schools
GoLingo! integrates music and movement into Spanish, French, Italian, and Mandarin
Chinese language classes. Our program is based on the principles of child development
and language learning. By introducing vocabulary and grammar through skits, songs,
art, and stories, we make learning fun. We offer 12 weeks of one hour after- school
enrichment programming. All materials are included. We hope your child will join us
on our journey through language!
Course Descriptions:
Beginner Spanish / French / Italian / Chinese
Help your child discover a new culture and explore the world’s diversity
through language study!
New language learners participate in a wide variety
of fun and active games and activities. Students
“travel” to a foreign country where new grammar
and vocabulary serve as a vehicle for experiencing
that nation’s culture, cuisine, music, drama and
visual arts. Students learn common phrases and
expressions to use in daily communication, such as
greetings, self-descriptions, and likes and dislikes.
REGISTRATION DUE JANUARY 30TH
Intermediate Spanish / French / Italian / Chinese
More experienced language learners will learn to
create new and more complex sentences using their
ever-expanding vocabularies. Students will learn to
ask and answer questions, express their needs and
emotions, and exchange information and knowledge.
We will also work on reading and writing in the target
language, including writing and illustrating our own
short stories. Art, music, and movement continue to
be important components of our curriculum.
