  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!)
I don't think it would be a good idea to completely separate these students. The students who don't speak english probably feel comfortable being able to communicate with someone. Maybe allow each student who doesn't speak any english to work with one student who is bilingual instead of as a whole group. having them exposed to english speakers will help them learn to speak it faster.
