Language Learning for Children: A 20-Lesson Curriculum to Help Children feel welcome in Any Language

by Alyssa Johnson, Christine Lewis

Do you live overseas with your children? Or are you part of a community whose primary language differs from your own? Are you raising third culture kids? If want your children to engage with your community in the local language "Language Learning for Children" may be right for you.
Language Learning for Children is a 20 lesson curriculum designed to start children learning a new language and culture. This curriculum utilizes (and requires) a native speaker of the language you want to learn. It is designed to be run by parents with small groups of children of almost any age range. Each lesson is scripted for consistency and includes activities that will engage a variety of learning styles (story time, drawing/coloring, active game, etc).
Children will learn how to respond to basic questions found in all languages. They will learn over 200 words that are relevant to young children (colors, foods, body parts, daily activities, good manners) as well as discover how to participate in the new culture in an appropriate way (shopping at a store, hosting a guest). This curriculum will help your children engage in a new language and culture!
