  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!)
Separating the students would end up causing more trouble than helping! Maybe you could change the dynamic of your lessons and add in the game mentality. Create lessons that make earning points by speaking English (or correctly saying Spanish words or phrases) and bring some fun into the atmosphere of your class. Children that age will do almost anything you ask if you make it fun.
