Cultural Exploration
At Elementary School, we believe in celebrating our diversity by learning about other cultures. The following activities provide avenues for learning:
School Around the World
 |
Grades Pre-K - 8th | Enrollment: N/A |
School Around the World is an evening event where our families come together to celebrate and learn about our diverse cultures. Families are invited to create a display about their culture with foods, artifacts, photographs and books. Our celebration culminates with several live performances, including music and dance. It is a special evening that all of our families enjoy, whether presenting about their own culture or learning about others. This school year's event will be held in Spring 2012.
Cultural Awareness Classroom Activities
|
Grades Pre-K - 8th | Enrollment: N/A |
One day each month is designated as a Culture Awareness Day! Teachers plan classroom activities to learn about the month's designated cultural group. Details about what is happening in your child's classroom can be found on your teacher's classroom website.

More Info: Our early elementary students learn their new languages through adventures, activities that require increasing levels of engagement and understanding over time, and that reward kids with a feeling of accomplishment. A simple literacy component ensures that these students not only listen, speak, sing and play in their new language, but read and write as well. Lango is proud to partner with dozens of elementary schools nationwide to provide convenient classes to their students. Elementary classes will be sub-divided by age/grade based upon students enrolled.
