Case: Just not hard enough
The parent contacts you stating that following. Parent : I don't think you are making the class work hard enough. My child hardly ever has homework and I think you are dumbing down the curriculum because there are some trouble-makers and ‘Special Education' students in the class. How would you approach this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would pay attention to the student during class time. If I notice that the student is on a higher intellectual level and the parents agree to it, I would recommend the student be evaluated for gifted classes or higher level work. I would also challenge the student to do things such as research outside of the assigned homework and read novels at home if the homework is not enough to challenge them. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. Gifted testing will help determine if the child needs more stimulating work. I also like your idea of having the student do research outside of the classroom- this gives them more challenge. |

Comments: These are all great ideas and ones I would use in my own classroom. I agree that paying attention to the student after being confronted about the situation is important, and think gifted classes or higher-level work might be the right solution. However, if the student needs to stay in the class I think giving them a few more challenges is helpful, ones they can do on top of normal classwork and things to do at home when they finish homework early. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. You may not be able to make the work more difficult depending on the curriculum for that class and the students in it. If the student is doing exceedingly well then perhaps they do need to be evaluated for gifted classes. |
