About Us
Our Curriculum
​
Our curriculum was developed by Blanca Lawton, Director, and Founder of the Spanish Immersion Program. Her approach to language learning involves a combination of structured lessons with developmentally appropriate Play/Pretend Learning activities. The foundation of our program’s curriculum strongly encourages individuality and expression through imaginative play, exploration, music, dance, art, and culture.
​
The Spanish Immersion curriculum is divided into the following areas:
​
-
Conversational Spanish, Practical Spanish & Daily Routines
-
Play/Pretend Learning
-
Hispanic Culture and Traditions.
-
Language Workbooks.
-
Creative Subjects (Art and crafts, music, rhythm, and movement).
Our Story

​
The Spanish Immersion Program began at the home of Blanca Lawton back in 2004.
Mrs. Lawton foresaw the need for a program for preschool children that incorporates play, music, art, culture, and values through a full Spanish immersion-style language learning process. Very quickly, her program grew, and came the after-school lessons, homeschooling classes, summer camps, and extended care program. The Spanish Immersion Program has since expanded and relocated to a classroom tailor-made for children in the East Sacramento area.
In 2009, Mrs. Lawton successfully landed the creation of a user-friendly didactic Spanish learning kit - LEARNING MADE FUN.
