Curriculum

Spanish, French and Mandarin for Children

Lango MoCo classes offer a uniquely developed curriculum that tailors activities to students' ages. See class descriptions below to find the right class for your child!

Tot-and-Parent Classes

Children in this class don't sit still for long! Accompanied by parents or caregivers, Lango's youngest students (ages 1½ to 3 years old) start learning a new language through a variety of activities designed to engage their minds and bodies. Music and movement form the foundation for the classes, as the children sing simple, rhythmic songs and dance, run, spin and jump around the room! Meanwhile, our teachers work with the accompanying adults, teaching them age-appropriate games and activities so that they can reinforce learning at home. These "playclasses" are great for parents and caregivers who want to learn Spanish, French or Mandarin alongside their children!

Preschoolers' Classes

Fun and play form the foundation for our Preschool Spanish, French and Mandarin classes. Within two or three classes, kids ages 3-5 learn key phrases in their new language through simple, repeated songs and chants. Meanwhile, they become familiar with more complex aspects of the language by engaging in "adventures," art projects and movement-based games that require them to solve simple problems - in their new language, of course! These adventures, starring the Lango Kids, our multicultural cast of characters, take students to other lands and cultures to ensure that their language instruction is combined with cultural exposure. Preschoolers' Spanish, French or Mandarin is great for children who are enrolled in preschool, but have not yet started kindergarten.

Elementary School Classes

A strong cultural emphasis grounds our early elementary language lessons in the customs and traditions of Spanish-, French- or Mandarin-speaking people, while a simple literacy component ensures that these students not only listen, speak, sing and play in the target language, but read and write as well. Our curriculum takes students on imaginary journeys where they work on fun problem solving adventures built around cultural themes. Lango MoCo is proud to partner with schools to provide before-school/after-school Elementary Spanish, French and Mandarin to their students.
