Traditional and Montessori
Spanish and Mandarin
immersion preschool program
We provide a strong foundation in the world’s most spoken languages while teaching the core academics, specifically in math, science, music and language arts. We teach our children to ask questions and explore. We develop our children’s curiosity and allow them to learn from discovery and play. Beibei Amigos Language Preschools offers both Montessori or Traditional for children from three to five years old.
Beibei Amigos teaches the languages through monthly Spanish and Mandarin thematic units. We believe that the cultural of China, Spain and Latin America is a key component in better learning and understanding the languages and becoming a global citizen.
Spanish and Mandarin Immersion Montessori Program
The Montessori program is child centered, children have a Spanish Certified Montessori teacher and a Mandarin assistant teacher in the classroom. Student learn both languages organically through out the day from both teachers. We recognize the 5 core components as essential in Montessori schools—properly trained Montessori teachers, multi-age classrooms, use of Montessori materials, child-directed work, and uninterrupted work periods. Fully integrating all of them should be a goal for all Montessori schools.
The teacher, child, and environment create a learning triangle. The classroom is prepared by the teacher to encourage independence, freedom within limits, and a sense of order. The child, through individual choice, makes use of what the environment offers to develop himself, interacting with the teacher when support and/or guidance is needed.
Spanish and Mandarin Immersion Montessori Program
The Traditional language immersion program is teacher directed. The Traditional program is more language intensive and students attend half the day with the Spanish teacher, and half day with the Mandarin teacher. Half day students choose one language to learn.
Students in the traditional program start the day with Circle Time. They learn songs, sing and dance, during Music and Movement. We know that children learn from play, students have time to explore their environment and choose centers including, science, math, blocks, and dramatic play.
