SPANISH IMMERSION LIL’ LEARNERS PRESCHOOL AGE 3-5 Must be of age when entering the program

Research shows that total immersion is the best way for children to develop a long lasting foundation in the Spanish language. 90% of instruction will be in Spanish and 10% in English. The classes are designed to spark and maintain children’s interest in Spanish by engaging them in creative and enjoyable cultural activities such as dancing, singing, literature, art and games. Through immersion, children will learn the Spanish language naturally and easily as they master basic pre-school skills.

BABY SIGN LANGUAGE ONLINE INTRODUCTORY WORKSHOP

PARENTS-TO-BE & PARENTS WITH BABIES UP TO 18 MONTHS

WITH HAPPY BABY SIGNS

Baby Sign Language gives babies the opportunity to communicate long before they can verbalize their wants and needs. Signing with babies accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration, enhances a child's self esteem, and deepens the bond between parent and child. Fun activities and songs will show how easy it can be to integrate more than 30 signs into your everyday routine and jump-start your child’s verbal skills. Babies are welcome but not required. This Introductory Workshop can be followed by 6-week sessions offered by Happy Baby Signs at other locations with themes like mealtime, animals, colors, family, bedtime, and more!

MINI-GROUP PIANO CLASSES AGE 6-9

WITH SVETLANA TUCHINSKY, B.M., MA Education & 15+ years experience.

YOUTH & TEEN

Learning to play the piano is FUN! We believe that piano lessons should be enjoyable and productive, not dull and isolating. By putting students into small groups in the beginning, we give them a chance to share the learning experience with others.

This creates a built-in support team of friends and encourages children to practice. Activities include music-oriented games, EZ music theory, and ear-training. Classes are progressive: Piano 1, the beginner's class is followed by Piano 2, etc. Each student has access to a piano or keyboard in class; however, a piano or keyboard is needed to practice at home. Mindful of gradual reopening, we reduced the size of the group to 3-4 students for in-person classes. Students meet once a week for 35 minutes class. Lab Fee: $25 payable to instructor at 1st class.

SPECIAL INTEREST

BEGINNING & INTERMEDIATE DOG OBEDIENCE

WITH SUCH A VOICE, LISA FOSTER

(DOGS 4 MONTHS +) FAMILY MEMBERS AGE 11+ WITH PAIGE TYSON

ADULTS

BEGINNING: Your dog is taught to sit, down, stay, come, heel and easy (walking nicely at the end of the leash without pulling). The dog is taught to move freely and easily with the collar, so one day you barely have to use it! The dog is also taught to perform things and to willingly do or not do things, not just be prevented from doing them. Verbal and/or physical praise from owner is given. This builds a relationship between owner and dog. Any specific problems you are having will be addressed and cured in class or by a lifestyle change at home. You will need a 6 foot comfortable leash. Instructor will supply the nylon collar.

INTERMEDIATE: This class will instruct students in off-leash control.

This is done with the addition of a 30 foot long line.

ALL Dogs must have current rabies and distemper vaccinations.

A 6-foot comfortable leash is required. Special nylon choke collar included in fee. Minimum owner age is 11 years old. Questions?

Special care is taken to connect participants with someone who shares similar life-experiences and perspectives, with programs offered in languages such as English, Mandarin, Spanish, and Tagalog, and to participants who identify as LGBTQ. Peer counselors meet with participants via telephone, zoom or when possible in person.
