  Case: SPEAK ENGLISH!
I am a Kindergarden teacher that has a big group of hispanic students in the classroom. Many of them do not know how to speak English and thus makes it very complicated and frustrating to communicate. What is even worse, is that these students tend to speak Spanish when they are amongst themselves. Clearly, as a teacher I want them to be able to Participate, however, I am not sure whether or not I should separate them and forcé them to leave their native tongue at home.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One great way to handle this would be to put the students in groups with 2 Spanish speaking students and 2 English speaking students. This would be a great way to blend both languages into one setting. The Spanish speakers would need to practice their English to communicate with the English speakers but they still have the comfort of having another person who speaks Spanish in their group for any thing they may need. I would never say you can't speak Spanish but place these students in situations where they can practice their English.
