  Case: CT Internship
I am in my second internship with a ESE high school teacher. It has been about a month into my internship and he still has yet to involve me in the classroom. I have taught before at the elementary level and although I don't want to take over the class and I want him to feel comfortable I also want to help. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I am in the same boat. It is very frustrating, I feel like more a burden than an addition to the class. I would communicate with your CT, asking how you can be of most help to them and their class. I was put in charge of grading, which, you know. It is something. I would also discuss with them your assignments and expectations, so they can understand that your participation is required. Teachers are very overwhelmed right now, so asking about upcoming plans, lessons, activities, etc. in order to assist them would also be appreciated. You could also communicate with your supervisor, so they can relay to the CT the expectations for interns.
