  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?

Something that you could do is send out a list of things to the parents in the form of a checklist that will be in the student's folder that day. That way the parents are aware of all the things you have handed out and they know exactly what to look for. Another thing you could do is have students initial somewhere that they received their papers that way they cannot claim they did not.

Comments: I do and I don't like this. I like the idea of a checklist in a student's folder. But I don't like the students initialing that they received their papers. I think the checklist shows what the child did and didn't do.
