  Case: Fighting ESOL students
Two of my ESOL student from different countries start arguing about the civil unrest between their countries. They begin to push each other, just when principal walks in for observation. The principal breaks apart the students. What should I do at this point with my students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Creating a safe and positive classroom culture should have been addressed before this fight started happening. Thank gosh the principal came in and broke up the fight. I have never experienced this inside a classroom before, however, I imagine that this is a big deal and may need to result in the students being split up into different classes since there is a lot of political ties and affiliations. I think you could take your students out of class and talk to them and everyone could have a meeting and discuss ways to help solve their issues.
