Daily Report Homework Solution

Do you have a few students who can’t seem to complete assignments and turn them in on time? Yet when you talk to their parents, you hear the story, “But he said he finished all his homework!” Sadly, these students may feel they are telling the truth because they forgot they even HAD homework.

The problem with this scenario is that the problem can’t be solved without the parents and teacher  working together closely for a few weeks to find out where the system is breaking down. Parents can’t make sure kids are doing homework if they don’t know about assignments until the end of each week or, worse, when mid-term reports come out.

Daily Report

I created this Daily Report to help me stay in touch with parents and to make sure that problems are caught right away. Each day the student writes his or her homework down in a notebook or planner and brings it to show me along with this Daily Report form. I complete the boxes by writing an S, N, or U to show how the student’s day has gone, and the student takes it home his or her parents to sign. If parents will set up simple incentives, like allowing the child to stay up late on Friday for a certain number of Satisfactory ratings, this report works very well to stop problems in their tracks.
