[quote=Anonymous]Teacher here: OP, you can't do anything about what the kids do or don't have from home. Maybe you have some poor students. Maybe they are teenagers and all consumed with teen angst and can't remember their pencil. Maybe their parents leave early for work and never see the kid leave the house. Maybe the kid has undiagnosed ADD. Who the hell knows? Things you can do: Tape huge flowers to your pens - that will remind them to return them. Or, let them borrow a pen if they give you a shoe - again, will definitely get them back. Stop letting them try to borrow stuff from others - you are wasting their time and your time. Eliminate the reward for forgetting a pen (extra time spent off task) and maybe you will stop seeing so much of it. [/quote]
