  Case: Graded Papers
Each week I have students take home graded papers. They have a folder in which they are to place these papers to take home. I have noticed that many of my students are not putting the papers in their folders. I have also had parents call or email about not seeing their child's take home papers. I inform them that they went home in their child's folder. I'm not sure if the students are taking them out before they get home because of some of the grades or for other reasons. How do I make sure that graded papers are getting home and seen by parents?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If you want to be sure the parents are seeing the grade, you can use online grading websites that the parent can login and view.

Comments: If I was in this situation, I would not use this solution. I would not use this solution, because some teachers don't have access to online grading.

Comments: I have seen this done before and to be honest, a lot of parents don't take the time to look up grades. After going to work or doing things around the house, parents would much rather just see a physical copy of the graded work or a grade from the teacher instead of going through the process of looking things up online.

Comments: While this can be good, seeing the physical paper with the grade could allow the parents to go over the wrong answers with their children.
