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!)
Your goal is to try to break the habit. Have 2 jars. Fill up one with candy/pennies/etc. Each time JM uses a swear word, have him take one and put it in the swear jar. At the end of the week/month he gets to keep what is left in the other jar. This is a great way to break any habit.
He is probably hearing these words at home and knows he is going to get punished for it. Telling his parents won't work and going through the school's discipline system will only land him in ISS constantly. He needs to be in your classroom learning. The swear jar helps him break the habit. |

| Comments: I think this is the best solution because it incorporates all the strategies I would use to diffuse the profanity. I like the idea of the candy/penny jar because it is a visual reward. Discussing the problem with the parents cannot hurt so I would continue to try to keep them informed if his/her cursing gets worse or improves. I would also explain to the student that that kind of language is not allowed in an educational setting. That he/she is a role model for other students and we want to remain positive. |

| Comments: I like this one. I've seen it done in preschool classrooms for general "good choices" and it worked well. I agree, the goal is to break the habit and keep JM in the classroom, not remove him from the classroom. |
