EXTRA ACTIVITIES
We offer our students 2 hours of Portuguese as a Heritage Language class and an hour of extra activity among the options below:
Ages 2½ to 5½
Storytelling
Led by teachers, students in these classes participate in age-appropriate stories and activities that encourage the acquisition of new vocabulary and the use of words in different contexts. Learning takes place in a playful way, encouraging language development and preparing children for the next stage of their Club journey.
Ages 6 to 13
Capoeira
Our Capoeira classes, led by a Master, combine movement, warm-up, and new techniques. In addition to physical practice, students learn about the origins and cultural importance of Capoeira, play instruments such as the berimbau, agogô, and tambourine, and sing songs in Portuguese in a fun way. The activity develops vocabulary, coordination, flexibility, and creativity, valuing this rich Brazilian tradition. Come play and learn with Capoeira!
Ages 5 to 7 and 7 to 10
Game Club
At the Games Club, Portuguese comes to life beyond the classroom. In a relaxed environment, students expand their vocabulary in a fun and contextualized way, learning while playing with peers. The program combines language and playfulness, making learning light, engaging, and full of discovery!
Ages 5 to 7
STEAM Club - Sustainability
The Explorers Project invites children to learn Portuguese in a fun way, exploring topics such as nutrition, sustainability, and community action. Students discover that they are part of an ecosystem, discuss rights and responsibilities, and learn about well-being, healthy eating, and the circular economy. At the same time, they reinforce the importance of caring for the place where they live and acting positively in their communities.

Through practical activities and simulations, students reinforce their knowledge and become familiar with the exam requirements. The entire process is supervised by a teacher, ensuring effective and motivating study that increases confidence and exam preparation.
