  Case: Parents that are too busy
There is a bright and cheerful young girl in the second grade classroom I am currently spending time in. She struggles with all sorts of things, but especially reading. My CT recently spoke to her father about getting more reading time in at home and he got very defensive. She said that even ten minutes a night would really help the student, but he continued that they (the parents) had to work and were too busy. What would you do to convince this parent that those ten minutes are critical to his daughter's success?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would have the student read 10 minutes every day in your class, so that way you have data to show the parents of how the student is improving.

Comments: If possible, this should be a good solution. Is it possible to make small reading groups that all read out loud together?
