  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!)
I would communicate to the parents the need for the homework. If there are students that specifically need more help than others, I would send out an individual communication, informing the parents of the need for the homework. If the student's grades suffer, I would remind them of the homework and how working at home would improve the grade if they are not happy with it.
