I would call admin and a behavior specialist in order to calm them down. They also need to know there are consequences for fighting. Fighting is not tolerated and they need to reminded of this. If referrals are necessary then so be it. |

If there have been multiple instances of trying to get them to calm down, I would say that this is the best solution. It is detrimental to the other students to have fighting going on, and if you cannot handle it alone it is best to get someone with more authority and specialization involved. There is no shame in asking for help, and if you have attempted to solve the problem before it shows that you are not running to the administration at the first sign of things getting tough. |

If they're getting physical and it's constant, I would get administration and their parents involved. If it's something that separating them can help, that would be a good start, but it sounds like parents and administration need to be involved. Good luck ! |

This would be what I would do in this situation. Making sure the parents know of this behavior and documenting it each time it happens. |

Document each situation and call your administration. Most schools do not want you getting directly involved in a physical fight. Ensure that parents are involved as well and understand what is happening. |

If students are consistently trying to fight each other in the classroom. They have to much time on their hands and they are not being engaged. I would call Admin so they can drop in from time to time to check on them. |

I dont think having too much time is the reason they are fighting. |

I would definitely work on rearranging your classroom to separate the culprits. If your administration cannot get a behavioral specialist in there to help you get a handle on it then you may have to get creative. I would consider an emotional area that students can sit to instead of lashing out on peers to spend a few minutes in private and get a grip on their emotions. |

There isn"t much a teacher can do when fights are present, except call administration and break up the fighting. I would separate these students in the classroom to avoid further fighting. |

Fighting will not be tolerated. Contact administration as well as both parents and look into having the students placed into different classrooms can help to rid of the issue. |

I would inform the behavioral specialist and administration. There may be an underlying issue therefore the students may need some form of mediation so that the issue can be rectified. |

Fighting is usually considered an automatic referal as it not only endangers those particular students but the students around them. |

I would separate them and have them calm down then bring them back together to talk about what made them upset in the first place. I would have them come up with a plan for combating anger when someone offends them. |

I like this solution. Empowering the kids to make good choices away from aggression is more time consuming, but better in the long run. |

Try separating the students that want to fight so they are not next to each other in the classroom. |

Find a way to occupy their attention and get them to actively participate in the class. Also, putting them together could also work as if being together could potentially have them be acceptable of each other and limit the fighting that occurs. |

I would never do this. This is wrong. |
