Penstemmon I wondered about the book 'handing in" as well. I once taught a child whose homework was usually late, he sometimes managed to slip his book in the pile and tell me I hadn't marked it! For those up in arms about names on the board I regularly used mine as an aide memoire.Names are only written in the corner in very small writing. When you have to remember that some people haven't brought back their library book, Joe needs to wait in the foyer because his mum will be late and 4 children need a letter to go home, a list is a great help. For those who think it might be upsetting, children in my class would add their own names to the list when necessary. I remember a head teacher coming with a message for a child whose mother was a governor, after she had finished the child came across to me sighed and said "I'd better put my name on the board or I'll never be able to remember all that."
Fruit flies - help needed please.
