[quote=Anonymous]Okay, so 1) The school needs to help her actually use the planner. Not just explain over and over. Sit with her and capture the information. 2) Then at home, she needs a very consistent routine with you where she opens the planner, you look at it together, and she does certain assignments on certain days according to her schedule and due dates. She's not going to be able to do it on her own yet. You have to teach her the skills in baby steps. 3) You can do an incentive structure like 20 minutes of work gets her 20 minutes of phone time. She needs dopamine and she gets that from screens. She needs a dopamine reward to keep her motivated, because right now she's not feeling that dopamine from completing assignments. [/quote]
