Pre-Elementary Programs
Language Stars offers a comprehensive, age-appropriate,unit-based curriculum starting at the Pre-Elementary level.
- Our Pre-Elementary curriculum is organized around thematic units designed to facilitate practice of key Learning Topic vocabulary and functional language structures such as "My name is...," "I’m 4 years old...," "I have a...," and more. Each Pre-Elementary unit focuses on a unique set of vocabulary.
- In Pre-Elementary programs, children focus on building this key vocabulary (such as counting, colors, and animals) in the context of a thematic unit (such as Clowning Around or On Safari).
- Each thematic unit typically lasts 5 weeks, long enough for a group to learn, reinforce and digest the key concepts through a variety of lively games, activities and songs, including parachute games, bubble play, beanbag tosses, feltboards, puppet shows, and more!
- Teachers use only the target language, supporting comprehension with dramatic gestures and facial expressions, and a variety of simple, bright visuals and manipulatives.
- Teachers reinforce key words and phrases through rhythmic chanting, and clear, simple, consistent language, using focused repetition.
- The Pre-Elementary Curriculum Guide Book details the key vocabulary, song, coloring and activity pages for each unit. This and our Student Center allow parents to follow along with their child’s progress.
