  Case: Inappropriate Language in class
In your class, a student calls another student an inappropriate name. This behavior has occurred in the past and it is time to make the contact home. How would you approach this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would definitely follow through with the consequence if the student was made aware of the repercussions. To every broken rule, there must be a consequence. If the consequence to this particular broken rule was a parent contact, then I would stick to my word and contact the parent. I'd want a conference with the parent and student to get to the root of the problem.

Comments: I agree and by contacting the parents you can figure out some of what is going on at home that is causing this problem. I also agree that if you say your going to do something that you follow through and do it so that the students know you are serious and that they need to respect you.

Comments: The only way for a teacher to receive respect of there students is by keeping their word. If there are consequences for certain actions, the teacher should follow through.
