  Case: Making jokes
In my internship, my CT allows call outs and sarcasm in the classroom. I am the most sarcastic person in the world, but sometimes I feel as though she can not get through a lesson because she is allowing these students to call out and make jokes every 5 seconds. How can I show her this is a distraction for most students? Also, how will I be able to stop this when I go to teach in her classroom?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would make a comment to your CT and just let them know that you find it distracting and ask them to tell you how it started. There may be a reason for it that you are unaware of. Since you are going to have to teach in her classroom, I would make notes of the experience and hope that your conversation with your CT enlightened you for the reason why. Let her know that it makes you feel like you will not achieve what you are looking to achieve. They are there to assist you in part of your learning process.
