  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 is important to treat all your students the same so even though one is a "teacher's pet" you may need to set some boundaries with that student. Maybe pull students aside for discipline rather than doing it in front of that student. Talking about bullying in the classroom may be a discussion to have because of the other students making fun of him.
