  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!)
I agree, giving the student some form of creative outlet may keep them preoccupied when they have “free time.” If the student is exhibiting this behavior during instructional time or during guided/independent practice activities I would separate the student so they do not distract the rest of the class. Perhaps consulting with the guidance counselor or admin to see what solutions they have.

Comments: Guidance counselors could be quite helpful and may have a few tricks up their sleeve. Simply separating the student might be an easy temporary fix, but not long-term.

Comments: I agree that giving the student a creative outlet during any "free time" could be beneficial to the student. Allowing the student to explore his creativity during free time may help him stay focused during instructional time. If this solution is not possible or fails to work, getting support and advice from admins and guidance counselors will be helpful.

Comments: I like your idea of allowing the student to have some "free time" to offer some distraction as it is very disruptive to the other students. I definitely agree that separating the student from the rest of the class while they are performing this behavior is necessary. If all else fails then it would be appropriate to contact the guidance counselor etc. as you stated.
