  Case: Offensive Comments
If you were teaching a social studies lesson about Native Americans. What would you do if one of your students makes a comment like, "The Indians helped the white settlers?. How would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
First, you should explain the difference between Native Americans and Indians and how they are not the same. Then teach the lesson on what is racially correct to say and what actually happened. Explain that what the student said was not racially or historically correct.
