CULTURE:
The focus of the curriculum is to learn the language- but we believe that by understanding a culture and its people, the language then comes to life. We tend to have more affection for things we understand.
The amount of cultural exposures are the same in each language- but as you can imagine they differ between languages and culture. Here are the ones seen in the Spanish curriculum!

Flags of South America
Bull Fighting in Spain
