A training manual was developed to acquaint teachers and administrators with the history and culture of Mexican Americans and Puerto Ricans in Wisconsin so that they can better meet the educational needs of their limited English proficient students. This manual is one of three such manuals intended for use with allied audiovisual materials. Historical attempts to meet the needs of bilingual students in Wisconsin and the United States are reviewed, and aspects of different types of educational programs for minority students in Wisconsin are outlined. Information is provided on such topics as the history of Hispanics in the Midwest, language use and attitudes, cultural identity, Mexican migration to Milwaukee, Mexican family structure and values, Puerto Rican migration, and educational needs of Puerto Rican students. Videotapes and suggested readings concerning aspects of Hispanic culture and approaches to teaching English to Hispanic students are listed. (RW)
