re: help, bad grades

Quoting Moses.:" They have a basket that they drop their homework into in the beginning of class. She switches classes, ... [snip!] ... isn't even an issue the teacher can help with unless she repeatedly asks her for her homework, which, she shouldn't have to do."

No, but you did say you home schooled her last year, so she's not in the routine of turning her homework in every day. Maybe she needs that extra verbal cue until she can do it on her own without reminder for a week or more at a time?

Quoting Spencer Pratt:" <blockquote><b>Quoting Dōngtiān:</b>" I had problems like this when I was ... [snip!] ... in or not. Don't try to shame her or punish her into doing it, that is a short term solution that yields short term results."

I am sure she'd lose the daily log, ha.

Quoting Moses.:" IDK what IEP is. She does have a 504 for medical, and I have had so many smurfing problems getting them ... [snip!] ... to push for an OHI, but getting that is like pulling smurfing teeth. Hell, just getting the 504 for medical was hard as hell."

An IEP is an individualized education program. It's basically a plan that's JUST for your child. It's for kids who need extra help in school for various reasons.

Iep is an individual education plan, similar to a 504. Since she has a 504 and her homework grade is low you should ask for it to be revised to require the math teacher to give her an extra prompt and do the daily log thing. I'd just use the reasoning with them that yes, though her math grade is still good despite the issues, if it is allowed to continue it could severely affect her grades in later years.

Honestly, I don't know how much more they can do. The teacher calls for homework at the beginning of class. I have caught homework from previous nights coming back home with her and I will keep it in her folder and remind her to turn it in. And last year she was homeschooled from November on, but she has always been in public before that. But, this IS the first year that she does change classes.
