As a parent, it really bugs me when teachers [b]don't ask kids for their homework[/b] and don't tell them it's missing, and then accuse them of being "late" weeks later.

You mean the kids have to actually remember to turn in their assigned work!  The horror![/quote]

Mommy should go with them and turn the working.

Why does 5he teacher have to ask for it?  Most of mine had a basket for assignments. It  was on us to turn them in.[/quote]

The point that many are missing is that parents don’t know things are missing or students are not doing well unless grades are entered.  Parents are trying to be engaged and help students become better a time management and executive skills.  If teachers are grading things or noting them as missing right before interims or right before end of quarter then no one has time to improve or change tactics.

6th-9th grade is when kids should really be working on these skills buts it’s really hard to get right when the whole process is like the Wild West.  And it’s made worse when MS kids are getting quizzes out of 3,4,5 points that are essentially either A or F, or A,C,F. [/quote]

Don't kids keep track of their assignments anymore, does everyone rely on the teacher putting things online?  Do parents ask their kids what homework they have? That was a nightly question in our house.

Maybe go back to pen and paper.  Get your kid an agenda and teach them how to use it.  Review it nightly.  [/quote]
