FLEX Program
Buenos días! Bonjour! Our FLEX program is the Bayport-Blue Point’s second language enrichment program for students in grades 3-5. The acronym stands for “Foreign Language Experience” and affords students a chance to explore the basics of Spanish and French in a non-threatening atmosphere. The goal is to expose students to other languages and cultures, and to help them make connections to English, thereby expanding their English vocabulary as they learn words in other languages. Students enjoy learning Spanish and French and are encouraged to interact and use other languages for basic communication. Students learn Spanish and French through a variety of interactive and engaging activities such as singing songs, playing board games, and puppet play in the target language. This program is primarily oral/aural and lays the foundation for the formal study of world languages at the secondary level. Please email Sally Miller, the district-wide FLEX teacher, with any questions. She can be reached at smiller@bbpschools.org.
