Early Language and Literacy Program
Jose Coronado Clubhouse
Sponsored by ¡HolaKids!
Tuesday & Thursday
3:45 - 5:00 pm (clean-up at 4:50 pm)
This program is available at no cost to families with English Language Learning children who do not have access to educational programs or support for their children. The location of ¡HolaKids! Jose Coronado perfectly positions us to make education accessible for preschool aged children living in the area whose families are unable to afford the costs of preschool. We work with the students to develop early foundational skills through alphabet knowledge, phonological awareness, and print awareness. We communicate with them in whichever language they are working to develop.
The program is drop-in and we require that parents and/or caregivers must be present with their children. Our goal is to support both the child and the parent/caregiver by providing them a quality preschool experience and show them how to carry over the academic skills at home. Although not mandatory, we hope that many of our ¡HolaKids! families will choose to be a buddy family for Language & Literacy participants.
On the days of our Language & Literacy Program, we will still offer extended care for our ¡HolaKids! students and your children will have an opportunity to interact with the children participating in the Language & Literacy Program. The ¡HolaKids! students will be under the supervision of ¡HolaKids! teachers while a separate teacher is responsible for organizing and implementing the Language & Literacy class.
Clubhouse space is minimal and we are limited in the amount of people that we can serve indoors due regulation and code.
