GLSC Summer Program for Children

Home-stay Program

June 20 – July 12, 2009

The Program for 12 through 16-year olds is a home-stay program with families in Ingelheim near Frankfurt, Germany. A GLSC teacher supervises the group. The Program offers participants an opportunity to use German in a German-speaking environment. The students live with carefully screened host families and participate fully in their lives.

Many activities are planned to give the students an opportunity to practice German in everyday situations. The students attend two weeks of school with their host brother or sister at the Kaiserpfalz Realschule, Ingelheim. Planned are participation at local events, a cruise on the Rhine River, as well as trips to the Mains Gutenberg Printing Museum and the Roman parts of Ingelheim and Cologne, the Chocolate Factory, as well as to other places of interest to children.
