  Case: Hygiene
How does one approach hygiene issues such as body oder in the classroom without making kids feel uncomfortable and embarrassed?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would talk to the student privately. I had a student who you could tell hadn't washed their hair in a long time, and my CT kept asking her if she wet her head. The girl laughed but looked super embarrassed. So I would pull them aside and ask them about their hygiene routine. You could also teach a life skills lesson about hygiene so they know how important it is.
