Spanish with Sandra

At the Branch on 5/24 at 2:45PM. It’s never too early to learn a language, so we are inviting three-to five year-olds and their parents to experience a pilot program which will immerse you in the Spanish language through songs, games, story time and many other fun activities. Taught by Sandra Alvarado, a Spanish teacher from Shelton, the program will begin on Friday, May 3, from 2:45 to 3:15, and continue for the next five weeks (last class will be May 31).  Registration (required) begins April 19 and space is limited.  ¡Nos vemos en la biblioteca!
