I have noticed however that the students like to play sides and ask the student teacher can they do certain things that they know they are not allowed to do; sharpen pencils in the middle of the day or retrieve something out of their backpacks after the morning announcements. I thought about giving the student teacher my classroom management plan to have him/her overlook so we can be on one accord, but have not gotten around to it. I have however mentioned to her some of the rules/ procedures in the classroom as well as addressed this manner with the students. I do not want to correct the student teacher in front of the students as I would like for them to respect and treat the student teacher as equally as myself. How do you all suggest I should handle this manner? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) As a student teacher myself I know that there is a point of time during the beginning of the internship where in the student teacher does not understand the procedures of the classroom as they have not had enough time to observe the teacher/student interaction. Maybe on a day the student teacher is present reiterate the rules to the students as if it were the first day of class, and ask the student teacher to refer to you in regards to questions students have related to movement around the classroom. This way the student teacher can begin to learn the classroom management plan though observation until you have the time to sit down and instruct them on the exact content of your plan.
