  Case: Homework Help
A girl in the class I am observing never does her homework. When asked about this, she says it's because no one is there to help her in the home. What can be done about this from an intern's perspective?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would hold a conference with the parents/guardian of the student with your supervising teacher. If they cannot come into school for the conference you can do it over the phone. Check to see if are able to help with homework and assure them that homework is essential to school success. If the parents work or are not able to help out offer to stay with the student either before or after school on set days for homework help. Additionally you could speak with your supervising teacher about allowing time during the day to work one homework.
