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!)
You should not force your students to leave their native tongue at home. Instead you should learn Spanish or have a translator to communicate with them. You can also use Spanish translation on objects in the classroom and also with work assignments. |

Comments: Making use of a school translator would make a big difference both for you as the teacher and for the student. If they are unable to attend parts of class, having them at least translate assignments and directions would still be very beneficial. |

Comments: At this age it is important not to get frustrated with the children. Spanish translation on object and in assignments will be a starting point for them to learn english. |
