  Case: Teacher's pet
there was one student in my class that was a serious teacher's pet. He was always so nice and respectful of me and he always did what I asked him to on the first time. He also would call out suggested punishments when I was disciplining another student. Many of the other students pick up on this behavior and make fun of him for it. What can I do in this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It may be necessary to speak to the students about how his input on discipline is inappropriate. Likewise, it is important to discuss being respectful to the class as a whole, as making fun of other students is never appropriate behavior. On your end, you can also make sure you aren't showing favoritism to this students.

Comments: Great idea. If i was in this situation, I would do exactly this. this allows the student to understand that this is inappropriate behavior as well as allowing the entire class to understand that bullying will not be tolerated.

Comments: a simple and effective way of dissolving the issue of favoritism and bullying. Although I wish they would have included more ways to avoid picking favorites and effective ways to have students feel special equally.
