Teacher's video highlights progress of bilingual students
(AP) — Judging by their eagerness to answer questions, it's hard to tell that some students in Andy Bishop's fourth-grade class at Jefferson Elementary School once struggled to speak English.
In the weeks before school ended, a group of students in Bishop's class made a video to share with their classmates what it is like to grow up being bilingual and at the intersection of two cultures.
The attitude toward bilingual students wasn't always so positive, Newell said, and this video helps highlights why the students should be proud.
For the students featured in the video, they hope their stories help inspire other kids.
