How can I help my child at home if I do not speak the language?

At this level the process of learning it is based in comprehensible input. It is very important to listen to the language. Like infants, we learn by looking and listening to our parents then demonstrating comprehension.
We encourage the parents to talk with your children about the class. Every week a 'sharing paper' will be sent out and post it in the teacher's website son students can practice and share.

Is homework given to the students in this class?

Not usually. All work is done during our class time. For some activities, students may be asked to complete information or share their folder or work at home and then bring it back.
