El Jardin.
El Jardín is a four-hour drop-off Spanish immersion experience for children grades TK-8th located on our 3.5 acre plot at the Carpinteria Community Farm. The program studies thematic units, Spanish vocabulary, outdoor learning, sustainability, gardening, and art — all in a Spanish immersion environment. These are small group classes of up to 14 students per group, taught by our amazing and beloved Spanish teachers!
Classes offered:
Pequenos (TK-1st): Students learn new weekly Spanish vocabulary, letters, colors, and numbers; and they enjoy “dirt play,” gardening, art, story time, singing, and dancing — all in a Spanish immersion environment.
Primaria (2nd-4th): Students learn new weekly Spanish vocabulary, outdoor exploration, note-taking, reading, gardening, and art — all in a Spanish immersion environment.
Secundaria (5th-8th): Students learn weekly Spanish vocabulary, outdoor exploration, note-taking, reading, grammar, gardening, and art — all in a Spanish immersion environment.
