The Fall is a long stretch for kids (& teachers) since we don’t have a break until the end of November. Students can get a tad forgetful so I wanted to share this tip to help with homework!
I created a google doc that looked like this:
I have one kid that is the ‘homework manager’
she is in charge of checking the {TURN IN BOX} every day and then checking with the kids whose names are not highlighted to see if they in fact did not turn in their homework.
This is FABULOUS documentation for my kids because I can open the responses,
click ‘CONTROL F’ then search for a students name. I have a time stamp for EVERY day a child did not turn in their homework.
It’s all digital.
I can’t lose it.

To see how I set this up as well as read how I created a google form for documentation restroom passes

I LOVE my write on wipe off math games.
They are perfect for math centers because you just print, add a pocket sleeve, and play!
No prep needed!

November 20, 2015 at 6:11 pmI downloaded your homework paper, but it doesn't have the QR code. Can you let me know how to make one and attach it so that it will take the kids to the Google Form? Also what app do I need on the ipads so they can scan the code? Sorry, I'm new to this and want to start using it form homework and restroom passes!

December 4, 2015 at 9:22 pmI love the late HW checker, but how do you get the students to actually "check in?" I would think students want to complete this step and admit to still having late work out. What happens next? Thanks!

March 11, 2016 at 4:01 pmHow do you set up the QR code? Can it work on any camera device? Can you help with google docs too? I'm pretty tech savvy but haven't tried QR codes yet!! haha

March 26, 2016 at 3:16 pmThank you so much for posting this! This idea is genius! I don't have a classroom where kids could do this because we don't have devices, but it has streamlined behavior documentation for our team in the best way! I wrote a post about it and linked to you here: http://kelseynhayes.com/2016/03/25/how-to-streamline-behavior-documentation-in-a-middle-school-classroom/

April 15, 2016 at 3:13 pmLove this idea, but the google doc for homework suggest your students only have homework on Monday's. What if you assign homework on a Tuesday and they don't bring it in on Wednesday?

April 30, 2016 at 4:08 pmLove this idea! How do you create the No Homework Documentation on google? Thanks.

May 4, 2016 at 4:50 pmI LOVE your "No Homework Documentation" and "Restroom Pass" QR signs! Your blog was very easy to follow to make the forms! I was wondering if you could change the wording on the Homework QR sign. I want them to match with your adorable writing. Could you make is say, "Scan the QR code if you forgot to bring your homework today!"? My co-worker and I are stoked to get this in the classroom!

June 22, 2016 at 2:31 amGirl, you are brilliant! My teaching partner and I were having problems with messes in the boys’ restroom (go figure) and we tried the QR code pass you developed. Let me tell you – the problems stopped immediately! Now we are considering using QR codes for nurse, office, and library passes. I also love the No Homework code! Brilliant, I tell you! Thanks so much for sharing!

Thanks!

Sorry, but I currently don’t have time for that extensive of a tutorial but I am sure you can google it!
Check out my Bathroom Pass blog post, I may have written more information over there!
You’re Welcome!
Good Luck & Persevere, gir!

August 8, 2016 at 1:43 amThis was a wonderful idea. I had no clue that this was available as an option in the classroom. It took me a minute, but I created a No Homework, No Supplies, Missing Assignment, and created a Contact Information one for open house. Thanks so much for sharing.

February 24, 2019 at 6:03 pmAny advice on how to implement the Homework check-in? Do students use their phones? I guess I don’t understand the system you have going, what do you mean by the “students’ names who aren’t highlighted?” This is an awesome idea though and I’m curious!

March 20, 2019 at 4:28 pmMaybe a silly question. I’m guessing there’s a paragraph or two I’m missing. What device do the kids use to scan the QR code?
