  Case: Inappropriate Rapping
In my internship class, there is a high school ESE student that is constantly rapping loudly. They are rapping songs that are incredibly inappropriate. The teacher of the class just ignores them or tells them to stop but then doesn't do anything if the student continues. I feel like I should do something but I'm just not sure what.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
What are you studying currently? Give the student an "extra credit" assignment to create a rap based on something you are learning. It could help keep him/her focused and channel the rapping spirit into something positive.

Comments: An extra-credit assignment allowing them to a create a rap on what they are learning can be a good outlet and engaging activity for that student.

Comments: I really like this suggestion! Keeping the arts in everyday class is important and this is an opportunity to do that. This also gives the student an opportunity to theme a song with different content.

Comments: I 100% agree with this! I did song parodies for my history class, and I learned so much from just writing the songs. At least with this solution, if he starts rapping, it will be about the subject material.

Comments: instead of banning rap, giving them an assignment that pertains to their interests, while still requiring appropriate behavior is a great idea to not breed resentment or alienation
