  Case: My Son's Teacher
I have a 3 year old son in Pre-K. When I first enrolled him in this school everything seemed fined. He liked his teacher and started gaining a lot of friends. One day while I was visiting his class I noticed that his teacher was ignoring a white student sitting in the back of the classroom. I didn't say anything because I assumed he was in time out. As time passed she kept ignoring him. Whenever he wanted to participate with the class she just smiled and said nothing. Story time she made him sit in the back. He's already the only white male in the class, there's a female but she treats her the same. I'm not sure why she treats him like this but I know this isn't right. I don't want to cause any problems but I cannot sit back and continue to let her treat that innocent boy that way. What can I do to help him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it is important to remember that there can be so many possible reasons as to why she treats this student this way. I do not think her behavior is okay, but you have to look at the many possibilities as to why she is ignoring the student. It could be because he may act out in the class which can cause a disruption during reading time. I think the best solution would be to maybe talk to the students parents about the situation. This way the parents can be in the loop because it could be that the student may have behavior problems that you do not know about. I would say talk the the students parents and let them handle it from their.

Comments: Going to another parent might take too much time and could only prolong the process of dealing with the problem at hand. With as much time that went by, I don't think it was appropriate as a punishment of any kind.
