Bilingual students

Because many of our students are bilingual English/Spanish I have found it helpful for long-term memory of all students to have bilingual students find words in English and Spanish that share the same Latin word element.

Wendy, this is a wonderful idea because it begins where your students' knowledge is and builds from there.

I do the same and it usually helps retention alot.

I try to pair up students who share bilingual languages. They help support each other and translate to assist with learning the material.

Dale, this also creates a supportive network of colleagues who value each others' success.
