Description: Join us for an exciting week of German language immersion with faculty and staff from the UAF German program. Participants will be introduced to this foreign language with age-related activities like drawing and painting, singing German children’s songs, learning to count and spell, baking cookies, exploring nature, and reading stories. Our goal is to establish an early language interest in children. Interacting and working with others will not only enhance the awareness of their native language but also empower social skills and teamwork.
