  Case: The Swearer
J.M is a swearer. The student uses profanity continually. Uses it anyplace anytime and in the presence of anyone. The student swears intentionally, or may not even be aware that he/she is swearing. The student even declare that there is nothing wrong with swearing.
How do you deal with a student like J.M.?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You simply have to pull him aside and tell him that his profanity will not be tolerated in your classroom. Give him a warning and then write a contract that said he understands if he continues to use profanity in the class it will result in being written up and detentions, ISS, and silent lunch will come into play. Get administration involved. If not of it solves the problem, request for the student to be removed from your classroom and transferred into another class.

Comments: I dotn believe that you should give up on the student just because they have a potty mouth and pulling them aside will disrut the learning in the classroom if you pull them aside every day and really often

Comments: I feel that it does not work in the sense of dealing with a case because it takes away a deeper connection that could be made with the student to try and better behavior
