The GrapeSEED program is designed to support accelerated language development, foster interactive teacher-student relationships, and increase student interest and engagement. These features are particularly beneficial for special education students and those requiring additional support in oral language development, helping them achieve greater success and joy in their learning journey.

“Working with GrapeSEED throughout the years has been wonderful, I have seen the magic of its program happen within all of our students, but especially for our special education and special needs students! The program starts off easy and simple for our students to understand and grow with it. Many of our students love the songs and enjoy singing along!”

GrapeSEED for After-School Programs

Multilingual learners (MLLs) face the dual challenge of learning academic content while simultaneously acquiring English. Research shows that after-school programs can be uniquely beneficial for MLLs, particularly when they offer students extra time to engage with rigorous content and language learning (Maxwell-Jolly, 2011).


Schools using GrapeSEED in their after-school programs are able to complement and bolster the regular school day curriculum- thereby accelerating language acquisition and student confidence.



GrapeSEED can be used flexibly in after school programs as a “stand-alone” curriculum taught during intensive after school programs or in a “curriculum continuation” model extending the lessons taught during the school day. Students can also engage with the student app to get repeated exposure and practice with the language while teachers provide differentiated instruction for students.

GrapeSEED for Summer School

Research shows that summer school programs can have a positive effect on academic performance. Specifically, studies have found that summer school programs can help narrow the achievement gap for multilingual learners. 



Teachers who use GrapeSEED with students during the summer can use GrapeSEED as a “stand-alone” curriculum during the summer session or in a “curriculum continuation” model adding to the units that were taught during the regular school year. Students will gain confidence as they acquire language and will feel eager and ready to begin a new school year.

Using Grapeseed with our EL summer school students was a delight! They enjoyed the group lessons and were able to reinforce their learning individually through time on the Grapeseed app later in the day. As a teacher, I love using Nexus. Once I have learned the songs, and become familiar with the unit, my prep time is minimal; but the payoff is GREAT for these precious students!
