Case: The Newcomer
Ivan came to my 5th grade classroom two weeks ago. He moved to the United States with his parents about a month ago from Russia. Both of his parents are graduate students at the local university. Ivan speaks no English at all. There are no other Russian speakers in our school, so I cannot use a translator when I try to communicate with Ivan. So, I decided that I would give him time learn some English through everyday interactions with me and his classmates. Two days ago I heard Ivan using the "F-word" repeatedly on the playground and in the classroom. I do not exactly know how he learned the word but my guess is that one of his classmates taught it to him as a joke. I have to address this problem. I have to find a way to explain to Ivan that this word is not acceptable. I also have to find out who taught this to him. I cannot allow these types behaviors in the classroom. I am not sure if I should involve the parents. I need to do something, but what?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You could sit Ivan down next to you at a computer and use some sort of translation software or website to write something to him. Both languages would be on the screen, so both of you will know what the other is saying. You should consider giving the parents a head's up. Let them know what's going on and explain how you know he's not doing it on purpose, but it still has to stop. Make sure you find out who has been teaching him this stuff and address that issue. |

| Comments: The translator application allows the student to communicate effectively and calling the parents helps them understand the situation. |
