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 would not force the students abandoned their native language. However, it may be best to group the students with other English speaking students to encourage them to learn the new language. I would try to find ways to help motivate the Hispanic students to want to communicate in English, like praising them we they do speak English. |

| Comments: I like this approach. It is important for students to maintain their culture and if that includes speaking Spanish, we should let them. However, to encourage them to participate in the class and speak English, I like the idea of grouping all students together regardless of language so that they can learn from each other. |
