Case: Boy, don't you ever shower?
It is obvious from the first day of class that one of the students has bad body odor. By the end of the third week, you start to realize that the student as Steve. The other students in the class are going to greater and greater lengths to avoid sitting next to him. They mime choking when he sits in the seat in front of them. Any reference to odor or smell in the classroom is met with snickering. Finally, one day after Steve comes in late and sits next to a student in the front row, he turns to Steve and says, "Boy, don't you ever shower?" The class breaks up in hysterics. When should I have intervened? How?, What should I say to student? What should I say to others? Should I confront the class with Steve present?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It is embarrassing for the student to talk about their personal hygiene so I would not talk about a certain student's hygiene in front a group if his peers but in private. I would want to team up with the PE/Health teacher to do a lesson on hygiene to teach the students that it is important have good personal hygiene and the value of it. I would also talk to other teachers to seek their advice on how to approach students with bad hygiene. |

| Comments: I like this solution a lot, mostly because it is indirect and keep the teacher from having an awkward conversation with the student. Allowing it to be informative for all student, an dnot just Steve. |
