The curriculum will more than likely not line up from school to school. There will be gaps in knowledge because of these transitions the student goes through. These students will benefit the class because they bring a new view, a cultural view to the classroom. These students can bring their experiences to the classroom and teach their peers about a culture different from their own. We said that a promising strategy to help these students would be to contact their previous teacher to know what they have learned and what they were transitioning toward. 

Don’t just assume things about students. Teachers need to be informed in the different status’ of students. Teachers need to know how to help their students or should lead the students to the right resources. One point that came up was that the schools should offer after school tutoring.

Literacy is more than reading writing, speaking, and listening in the classroom. Reading road signs, reading music, and listening to music are also literacy. Technology is a type of literacy, and we should not assume that all children are literate in technology. Literacy is different between all cultures, and sometimes we forget this. Literacy in a classroom is perceived as reading and writing, while a sports team perceives literacy as knowing all the plays and the rules of the game. Literacy depends on where you, what your doing, and who you are doing it with. 

-Language is a human right because the United States has Freedom of Speech Laws that allow individuals to communicate freely in whatever language they desire. It concerns the individual right to choose the language or languages for communication in a private or public environment. 

-Some of the concerns are the emotional effects that the possibility of traumatic experiences involving immigration and leaving families behind. There are also issues that concern students with falling behind in school work. Socially, you wouldn’t be able to connect with your friends and family. The fear of people doubting whether or not you are legal as well as the fear of your family possibly being deported. Also, it may be difficult for students to trust their teachers and even open up to them in an educational sense. 

-They should know the concerns, strategies, and struggles that a transnational student goes through. The teacher should know how exactly a transnational student’s life and immigration system works and how to emotionally connect with the student. They need to know that there are specific things that their students will not know because they are transnational and they need to help them adapt and give them extra help when needed.
