  Case: Extra Work
I have had parents request extra work for their students to work on at home. Generally I do not mind getting a few things together for students to work on. However, with the amount of students that are on my caseload, I'm finding it hard to get the rime to look up resources for parents. I have resources posted on our class website for parents and students to use. Should I just refer parents back to those resources that are posted, or should I print physical materials for students to take home?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If you have resources posted on the class website and provide students with homework and their parents still request extra work for their students to work on at home the parents need to take some of their own time and find some resources for their children. It is important that you have a life also.

Comments: By posting material that is accessible to parents who request extra work, I think that you have done enough. Sometimes it may be a good idea to provide further work but parents are able to look for extra work as well.

Comments: I agree, if there is already resources online and the parents want more, then there is plenty of websites that they can get worksheets from. My aunt always gave extra work for my cousins that she got from external resources so it's possible for parents to take it into their own hands.

Comments: I like the solution because it doesn't put all the work on the teacher if the parents really think that the student needs that much more work when you have already provided resources for the student and the parents to look at at home in an electrical format then the parents obviously are looking for more than the teacher can provide

Comments: This solution is the most helpful to me. I believe that if parents want their child to do more work, they should refer to your resources. If you are doing you job by teaching them at school and it is not enough for the parents, then they should be the ones looking for other work for their kids.

Comments: Yes I agree do not get to sucked into more work load for these students. Having a website where the parents can choose to look into more resources leaves it to them and leaves you with more personal time.
