The students walk into class and put their heads down and sleep the whole time. She dosent try to wake them up. What can you do as an intern to make the students stay awake during class? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) If the teacher allows this, I'm not sure there is much you can do. You can ask her why she allows them to sleep or you can take charge and tap each student and remind them to stay awake during class.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I think speaking with the teacher is important.

Don't just let things slide. That student may need more help than known.
