Italian Language Immersion Programs for Kids Ages 2-12:
Girotondo - Year-round Italian Language Kids' Program (ages 2-5)
This year-round kids' program offers comprehensive language learning and hands-on instruction in the arts to children from ages 2-5. In Girontondo ("Circle") an experienced instructor provides opportunities for kids to learn Italian through play and activities: games, songs, dances, story telling, and film (Disney movies in Italian). Participation in multiple arts and crafts projects also reinforces the children's Italian language skills. Lastly, La Merenda (snack time) allows children the opportunity to converse on food routines in Italiano. Children are placed in groups (max. 7 children) according to age. Girotondo classes require the presence of a parent or caregiver.
Giardino Dei Bambini - Morning drop-off playgroup (ages 2-5)
Giardino dei Bambini is a morning drop-off playgroup at CI for kids ages 2-5. Children may join in on the fun every Tuesday and Thursday from 9-12 on an as needed basis. Experienced instructors provide multiple opportunities for kids to learn Italian through play, while learning important socialization skills. The program offers language learning through games, activities, songs, dance, theater, and hands-on creativity (art projects and cooking).
Homework Help in Italian (all ages)
Collina Italiana is continuing its work with American children and teens, enrolled at Italian school or in Italian programs, who desire homework help in Italiano in all subjects. CI addresses the needs of many Italian students in New York who seek reading, grammar, writing, and pronunciation support in English. CI's goal is to successfully reinforce a student's bi-lingual education. Private and semi-private tutoring and small groups (maximum 4-6 children) in both Italian and English are forming.
