MARACAS is an exciting interactive language learning experience for preschool and elementary age children. The MARACAS program uses music, interactive play, literature and crafts to expose children to the sounds and rhythms of Spanish in a fun and exciting way. Using a Multiple Intelligences approach, the students are immersed in the target language through exploratory learning and activities. MARACAS founder, Amanda Seewald, was named as a 2007 Mead Leadership Fellow at the Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. |

An Endorsement of our Program from Dr. Marjorie Haley...
It is with great enthusiasm and delight that I endorse Amanda Seewald and the MARACAS Program! Bravo for such an innovative approach to reaching ALL learners. Today's educational arena will surely benefit from these inspiring instructional approaches based on the Theory of Multiple Intelligences and brain-compatible research. This program is already a huge success and we look forward to seeing it continue to grow and have a profound impact on young language learners both here and abroad. Marjorie Hall Haley, PhD
