Curriculum
Bambini Dual Language Preschool’s vision is to provide all children the tools that they will need to
succeed in the 21st Century. We believe that children who speak, read and write more than one language,
are technology savvy, and able to work together to solve problems and invent new things are going to
prosper in the new knowledge based global economy.
Bambini Dual Language Preschool uses a language immersion education model. Native language
teachers are utilized in order that students learn native language fluency. All Languages have the same
blocks: Circle time, Story time, Language and Literacy development, Music and Movement and Centers.
Students are encouraged to use the language being instructed but are never belittled, coerced, or forced.
Language is always learned in a non-threatening environment where children feel free to learn and
express themselves in what ever language they fell comfortable speaking in at that moment. In the full day
and half day immersion programs only the target language is used for instruction allowing children to learn
the new language as rapidly as possible.
Bambini Immersion Preschool believes in multi-age grouping that allows children to learn from their peers
new skills and knowledge with opportunities to cooperate and learn from each other. It teaches them how
to work in groups to accomplish a common goal, skills that they will need to participate in the new global
economy.

Each block will begin with teacher instructed Circle Time (10 minutes) where children will learn the
calendar, the days of the week, letters or characters, weather, numbers, and songs through the weekly
