Spanish is the most common language spoken by Mexican immigrants in Minnesota as it spoken by 95% of people in Mexico.  There are also 50 indigenous languages spoken by more than 100,000 people in Mexico and it is likely that many of these indigenous languages have also made their way to Minnesota. ]]> 2022-09-18 15:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/glazo001/bcgl562dlptz6wwk/wish/2301681055 Historical and political context glazo001 https://padlet.com/glazo001/bcgl562dlptz6wwk/wish/2301681501

  • Let students use their native language in the classroom
  • Be mindful of how immigration and citizenship is talked about in the classroom -> being a citizen is more than just being documented
  • Label items in the room in both English and Spanish to promote bilingualism for all students

Yo pienso que es importante porque hay paginas de educacion que pueden ayudar a educar los estudiantes. Los niños deben usar celulares por una hora cada dia – no mas. Los padres tambien deben ayudar. Ellos tienen que enseñar sus hijos los paginas deben ir y los paginas no deben ir. Pueden usar mas cosas en su celular cuando van a la escuela secundaria. Los cellulares pueden ser una cosa buena pero tambien pueden ser mal. Es importante que los padres ensenan a sus hijos la differencia de lo bueno y lo malo.]]> 2022-09-18 18:08:42 UTC https://padlet.com/glazo001/bcgl562dlptz6wwk/wish/2301793135 Sources glazo001 https://padlet.com/glazo001/bcgl562dlptz6wwk/wish/2301808111 https://iimn.org/publication/finding-common-ground/minnesotas-refugees/latin-america/mexicans/#:~:text=Minnesota%20Population,as%20well%20as%20Mexican%2DAmericans.
