Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         Case: Sight Words I teach kindergarten and sight words are an important part of our instruction. We must have the support of our parents to keep this going. We try to help each child reach the 100 sight word club but many students do not have the help at home they need. It is a difficult problem. It is not fair to the students when it is their parents that are not helping them. How can we motivate our parents to study nightly? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I might try to motivate the student to study even if the parents aren't helping. Make flash cards for the student. He or she can ask a sibling to study with her (or him). If you take the responsibility away from the adult and let the student try, the parent might come around and help!                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This is a good solution. I agree that if the teacher makes these flash cards then the student can go to anyone at home for help.
