We might be getting some slight surprises, ds has hit a new low with (not) remembering homework. The teachers are 'preparing' the kids for middle school by having them remember their own stuff. For ds, he's decided that means 'write nothing down'. Uh, ok.
That is a big part of my dd's lack of turning in homework. After 2+ years of middle school & less than a year until high school, we have realized that she has got to figure out another method of remembering her homework as well as turning it in. The planner method is just not the ticket for her. To be honest, is never was for me, either.
We are experimenting with various types of sticky notes right now (a suggestion from a co-worker). If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. She is very tactile, artistic, musical, etc.
