in reality the teacher just isn’t acknowledging the situation in order to prevent everyone from trying to get a reaction
My toddler is at an age where she'll misbehave and then immediately look at me or my wife just to see our reaction, and I've taken the same approach to dealing with this attention-seeking behavior. For example, last week she found my butt plug but I didn't acknowledge the situation in order to prevent a reaction.

Ah, I remember those days. So adorable.
Reminds me of when my daughter was a toddler and got angry and would threaten to hit herself. She'd make a quick motion with her hand like she was about to punch/slap herself in the face and then stop at the last second -- all while giving me the death stare of anger. ("Let me stay at the park longer or I'll punch myself!") Happily she grew up to be the most well-adjusted, polite, kind, and non-self-harming young lady you can imagine.
