In September 2009, the Alliance Francaise de Milwaukee partnered with the Malaika Early Learning Center to offer French Through African Drumming. This outreach program continues to provide basic French language education through to children ages three to five. Learning a second language at an early age is critical to brain development and language skills acquirement (in both English and French). We are proud to offer this program which offers langauge education to children who would not otherwise have access to another language. The course, taught by Senegalese native Oumar Sagna, teaches kids basic French phrases, colors, animals, and songs. Our goal is that exposure to a second will instill a lifetime of language learning! For more information about the Malaika Early Learning Center and the work that they do, please visit their website: http://www.malaikaelc.org/. Grand merci to the Astor Street Foundation for generously underwriting this important program.
