MPASpanish

MPASpanish Mi Pequeña Academia is a Spanish immersion preschool committed to providing high quality education. Mi Pequeña Academia started in Needham, MA.

In Spring 2011, two brilliant women from Colombia were introduced because they “casually” shared an educational expertise and a similar dream of creating a preschool program of their own, where they could implement the strategies they thought worked best to help children grow happily and discover their own potential. They shared the same passion for working with children and thought they could tog

ether make their dream come true. Without much hesitation, Carmenza and Alejandra started designing their program and co-founded Mi Pequeña Academia, LLC. It was initially intended to be a Spanish immersion preschool, but life led the two of them to create an after school program for school age children instead. They had the most rewarding experience and were able to strengthen their relationship as co-workers identifying their own potentials. Carmenza and Alejandra impacted the lives of many children. Especially because they were caring and passionate about their work, children enjoyed coming to Spanish school. The children felt understood and special. They had fun playing with friends while learning Spanish. In June 2016, life granted Carmenza and Alejandra the opportunity to make their ultimate dream come true. Searching for a more suitable space, the two of them were brought to Melrose, MA. Although it was sad to leave the Needham community and their wonderful group of children, the space on 846 Main Street seemed perfect for their next big step in their career. They are currently undergoing a process to obtain a building permit through the City of Melrose to start renovations in late spring. Mi Pequeña Academia changed its logo and marketing image to better fit their philosophy and approach. Carmenza and Alejandra are working hard every day in creating the best preschool program they can offer to the community in Melrose and the surrounding towns. They are looking forward to opening in September 2017.

During the last two weeks of January, our entire school celebrated Chinese New Year with a variety of fun and educational activities! Here’s a highlight from our cooking workshop, where students learned to make delicious noodles and embrace cultural traditions. 🇨🇳 🎊

To celebrate the Chinese New Year, the children participated in a fun workshop where they learned about traditions, including making noodles and using chopsticks. The teacher guided them in preparing pasta like professional chefs, fostering an appreciation for cultural differences.

There were three activity stations:

1. Kneading and stretching dough (motor and sensory skills).
2. Cutting the dough into thin strips (skill and coordination).
3. Adding ingredients like avocado oil, cheese, and vegetables to make a Chinese pasta (sensory stimulation). 🥢 🍜

The celebration ended with a dragon parade and a joyful party full of music, color, and happiness. ❤️🐍🎊
