The number of bilingual students in the United States is growing, and most of those students speak Spanish at home. What can teachers do to help these students feel not merely included but centered in classrooms?Doctors Carla España and Luz Yadira Herrera have named six essential practices for centering the voices and experiences of Latinx students.
