  Case: No homework
I think that it is important to assign some homework several times per week. Some of these assignments are practice with what I taught that day and sometimes they are in preparation for the following day, e.g. prelabs, etc. Unfortunately, I have several students in each period that just aren't doing the homework. Help me!
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In the elementary grades, I would assign a point value for homework based on complete or incomplete answers, not only on correct responses. I would then explain the consequences of not turning in homework that is tied to the classroom behavior plan (usually some sort of reward). If the student continues to not turn in their homework, I would call their parents to come up with a solution together.
