  Case: Swearing
It was during the last week of my practicum class and I had observed a student throwing a chair in the cafeteria as well as many other teachers that had seen this. I wasn't sure that if I should approach the student or let a teacher take care of it. I looked up and saw a teacher walking towards the student. Before the teacher got to the student, the lunch bell rang and he headed for the door and left the cafeteria. I then saw the teacher go after the student.

I started to walk back to my classroom and when I got to the top of the stairs, I saw the student and the teacher talking. The teacher told the student that he needed to go see the principal and that she would go with him. He was outraged and started to swear at the teacher. At this point I started to walk over to them because the teacher was a little lady. He then took off down the stairs before I made it to them. I asked her if she needed help and she said she was fine. I then watched them go to the principal''s office. In this situation, what do you do as a teacher if you were in the exact same situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would send a studnet or another teacher to get help from the adminstration. In the mean time I would watch the student and make sure that he is not harming anyone else and he is still insight. I would try to let the student calm down on his own before talking to the student about his inappropiate behavior.
