  Case: CT favorites
My CT has two favorite students in the class. It is very obvious to the other students who they are, and I can see the sadness on some of the other students faces when she gives them extra attention or tasks to do for her in the classroom. I'm just the intern so I am not sure it is my place to say anything to her. Should I say something? If so, what should I say?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would politely bring up the situation in the fact that other students seem to be upset that the teacher has picked two favorites. Having favorites does not create an effective learning environment for all the students. The CT may also not be completely aware that she has singled these two students out as favorites and the effect it is having on other students in the class. By having a calm and constructive conversation on favorites and the effect of them in the classroom may cause the teacher to reevaluate her behavior without you specifically calling her out for it.
