  Case: Encouraging Parents to work with students at home
I work with ESE students and some struggle with focusing in class. I have sent home monthly homework sheets for my students and have even gone as far as to reach out to parents about how they can work with their child at home. Unfortunately, a lot of parents do not bother with homework with their child or extra worksheets that are sent home. Any tips and suggestions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You have done everything right so far, and I would consider reaching out to your teammates and the student's previous teachers to see if any strategies may have worked previously. If nothing improves, I would suggest scheduling a meeting with the parents either at home or school to discuss the need for parent engagement in their child's education. It is also essential to keep in mind parents of ESE students typically face more demanding and time-consuming responsibilities in their day-to-day life than other parents. These responsibilities may affect how much they can help their child with their homework.
