[quote=Anonymous]  She makes it seem so simple and yet other teachers look at you like you have 10 heads if you request this. Here is what I think is awesome besides the fact she knows her stuff and seems to truly enjoy her job:

1.) [b]Posting homework AND class notes on blackboard.[/b]
You never have to bother her if your kid is sick. If your kid was getting sick and spaced out that day there are notes for them to access. If your kid has an IEP is supposed to get copies of the teacher's notes, you don't have to bother her and the speced teacher about the fact your kid has received nothing.

2.) [b]Posting topics for the week and quiz and test dates on blackboard and updating when those change.[/b]
I have been told kids are being prepared to one day go off to college and shouldn't expect such coddling. Really? I went to a top University and we received a syllabus the first day with all of this info.

3.) [b]Reviewing with the Kids before a Test and Allowing Q and A[/b]
You know like they offer min college often led by a TA.

4.) [b]Study Guides accessible on Blackboard [/b]

I have yet to meet a parent who doesn't think this woman is a the cat's meow. This seems like it should be the norm and while a lot of work at first, would in the end make their job much easier. I would assume emails would decrease exponentially. However, I find it is becoming less and less common to provide these things.
