Accountability for schoolwork without prompting at age 6?! It sounds like there's something wrong with this teacher (lazy?) and she's putting the blame on your DS. Um, if you don't want to spend your time checking and rechecking to make sure your class is on-task and completing their work (and help with gloves and zippers, etc.) don't teach first grade. As far as what to do, it depends on how comfortable you are going over her head and whether you think she would take out any irritation with you out on your DS. One option could be writing a letter and CC it to the principal and learning specialist. In the letter you could include the checklist and the plan for daily work/home communication. If a few days go by with no communication, you could send a letter stating so. It's about accountability on the teacher's part for a black-and-white plan that she herself agreed on.
