[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not for the 504 per say, but as a SPED teacher I would first make sure that they have a plastic homework folder.  One location that any assignment that needs to be turned in goes into.

A watch like the one below set to vibrate 5 minutes after the start of each class can also help remind them to look at the folder to find assignments to turn in.   If they have a phone you could set up the same alarm system on vibrate, but may not work if they already have a lot of notifications and ignore them.

I may get flamed for this but accommodations of teacher signing off on the agenda can be very difficult at the middle and high school level when students have multiple teachers to have done with fidelity.  I try to help develop accommodations that also think about the executive functioning of teachers.  Some teachers are just not as organized, not because they are bad teachers, but they themselves suffer from executive functioning difficulties. As someone who is super organized myself when teaching 125 students over 5 class periods the agenda check has always been the most difficult accommodation to remember to implement even with loads of reminders, post it notes, calendar invites I have made for myself.  I only say this because this is the most obvious accommodation people will say to add, but I've never really seen it done well and consistently in a 7 period class schedule.
