Case: Smelling of Animals and Body Order
I have a set of twins in my classroom that smell of cat urine and body order. They preform well and their parents seem to care about their academic goals. However, I am worried about their hygiene. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Depending on the age group I would intertwine basic hygiene steps throughout the class. For example, getting enough sleep (maybe nap time), washing their hands, wearing clean clothes, exercising and being healthy. Teach these skills, and implement them before going to lunch have all the students wash their hands if there is a sink in your class. Teach them to neatly hang up their jacket after they return inside.
Or you could talk to the students and gather more information on why they may smell this way. You could kindly share you concerns with the parents. |

Comments: This is what I would do in this situation. Maybe teaching basic hygiene would help. If it doesn't, investigate further into what may be causing what's going on at home. |

Comments: If the students have an unpleasant odor then of course the other students have notice as well. If you start a hygiene lesson, especially if its not in a health class or appropriate space, then the students will feel attacked and embarrassed. I would have a conference with the parents. |
