  Case: Teacher playing favorites
I have done volunteer work in a special needs school and worked closely with a specific teacher. She tends to play favorites with certain students. It is very obvious to anyone observing and while the students are low functioning, some of them are beginning to catch on. There are a few who receive very little attention from her and are beginning to act up as a result. Is there anything I can do to help this situation as simply a volunteer?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a volunteer you may be able to make up for some of that lack of attention. It is hard for teachers to give all of their students all of the attention the need. You could try to help with some of the other students by answering questions and encouraging them.

Comments: I don't think this would help, as it doesn't change the teacher's behavior. As a volunteer, you aren't there all of the time. When you leave, the teacher will go back to playing favorites. I think another solution would be more beneficial.
