  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!)
I would definitely refer them to the website because that is the extra work that you have set aside. Maybe you could attach the extra work you are printing off to your website some way. Suggesting websites for the parents to print the material themselves would also take the responsibility off of you. Offer the parents to let their students to attend the after school program at your school. I'm sure they provide extra work to ensure enrichment opportunities.

Comments: This solution allows parents to have extra work for their children without creating extra work for the teacher. It could be said that the teacher could even suggest the parents invest in some activity workbooks for their child based on their grade level.

Comments: This is a great solution to provide parents with. Its important that you have time to yourself and if you already have resources on the website, referring them to it is necessary. Also as you said, after school programs are a great way to provide enrichment activities.

Comments: I feel that this is the best solution to the problem. You need to be able to have time to live your life away from school or you'll get burnt out quickly. Parents need to take the responsibility of finding other resources into their own hands.
