We have new Monday folders in class! I always struggle with how to keep track of and/or consequence students if they don't have them anymore. Getting work home, and showing the teacher that the parents received the work is a very important communication tool in elementary school. With that being said here is my new plan for 2013:
Students need to bring back their Monday folders signed the next day. If they don't we'll write a reminder in their planners.
The next day, if they don't have it, there will be a homework warning.
By the following Monday if it's still not back, they will be in charge of creating a new one.
The goal here is to help create responsibility in students taking things home and bringing things back to school- a skill they will need for the rest of their lives :)
