[quote=Anonymous]OP, I used to be a middle school teacher and it seems like your daughter might need some more scaffolding -- you know, like your invisible hand helping her to succeed. More structure. So, rather than letting her fail, you help her. Setting up specific targets (x #lines memorized by x date). Maybe it seems insurmountable now that she's procrastinated? That also may be true for the hw. I remember when I was teaching I was pretty surprised that some teachers explicitly taught organizational skills and some didn't at all. It was hard for the kids. Maybe your daughter needs some help for a bit to figure out how to be successful.[/quote]
