  Case: My Dog Ate My Homework
A problem I have had with several students is that they constantly "forget their homework," especially on Mondays, coming back from the weekend. How can I better instill responsibility in the classroom and prevent this issue from reoccurring?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As someone who is very forgetful and has ADHD, while many students (including myself when I was younger) use it as an excuse, it can often be a genuine inability to remember that they are actively looking for solutions to get around. I would recommend them solutions such as setting reminders in their phone or email, or writing notes for themselves in their notebook or even on their hand with a pen. If they seem receptive to these ideas, then you'll at least know they're being genuine versus simply making an excuse.

Comments: With most students having access to technology now a days, this is a good solution. If the students do not have technology they can use for an alarm/reminder then can either write it in their planner or you can send a note home with them asking their parents to set said alarm/reminder.
