World Language Program 2025 - 2026
World Language Program Overview
The Lincoln World Language Program introduces all students, regardless of past language experience, to the basics of French, Spanish and Japanese. Classes take place during lunch and recess time 1 day a week and are taught by experienced language teachers.
Objectives of the program are to increase global awareness and foster an appreciation for other people and cultures, create a positive attitude towards language learning, and help students acquire language in context through meaningful day to day activities and in a compelling way while supporting them through their conversational skills.
Activities may include playing games, learning songs, play acting, asking and answering questions, following commands, listening to stories, worksheets, videos, coloring, and craft projects. Topics may include the following at all levels of instruction of any given group: alphabet, greetings, colors, months, days of the week, seasons, celebrations, ages, shapes, family, clothing, body parts, feelings, animals, furniture, daily activities, vacation and travel, activities within the community, dates and times. Note that these topics will be included in different unit lessons throughout the year and keep students as the center of the curriculum.
Fees are assessed to fund the program, but are reduced or waived for students whose households request financial aid.
