[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignore the trolls saying that it's the kid's  job to do the teacher's job for them.

The kid's "job" is to write down a list of assignments, do them and then check them off once turned in.  If they do that, they won't have missing assignments at the end of the term.[/quote]

If only that were true.  My kids have had multiple occurrences of things showing as submitted it yet teacher losing the paper.  There are also group assignments where only one perso can turn in so if that person doesn’t do so, everyone else doesn’t realize it until the the teacher notes it as missing.   We’ve also had assignments that were not even  due yet show up as 0 or 50%.  It makes it so neither Students nor parents trust what is listed in Parentvue or Studentvue.  Sometimes Canvas is better[/quote]

I'm a teacher and I always have a few students who try to blame their missing assignments on me.  Sorry... I am human and it might be possible for me to lose a paper once in a blue moon, but multiple papers from the same student, uh no.  It is a very convenient excuse for mom and dad.[/quote]

How many weeks do you wait before reporting the missing paper? You are the adult in the room. Parents aren't allowed in the classroom to check on what's happening. We can't see your private files.

It's your job to report missing work to the child and parent immediately, if you are going to grade it as part of their long term academic record.

You're the professional. The kids have to manage 7 teachers all doing their own thing.
