As a parent, heavy on the hand written rough drafts and so on when it comes to papers. The due dates need to be more strict. I’m all for making exceptions, but leaving it open all semester is wild. A due date is a due date.

My teachers used to do note checks. Not only to make sure we were actually taking notes, but to make sure we weren’t missing any important info and that our penmanship was legible. If your notes needed to be rewritten more neatly you had to come in during lunch to do so.

Make them annotate the reading and tell them you’re going to grade the annotations! I’m an English teacher and I make a rubric that tells them the due date of the reading and a score 1-4 they could get based on the quality of the annotation, if they read and had detailed annotations they get the points. If not they can catch up for a point deduction or take the 0. We study the novels, thus you annotate.

I sometimes let students use their physical notes on quizzes to encourage them to take notes. I don’t tell them until it’s time to take the quiz

For making them read at home: reading quizzes. Every day. 2-3 questions about what they were supposed to read. They’ll get sick of failing and finally start reading.

My history teacher did a good job of making us read at home by having daily quizzes, just on that homework reading. Two to three questions as an entry ticket, pretty low stakes if you actually did the reading. The reading was never much, maybe 10 textbook pages, but the points added up.

I’m science but most of the ELA teachers have gone back to handwriting because AI is out of control.

All great ideas. I’ve done it the past couple years. My only advice is prepare yourself for the push back from kids. They’ve been used to a certain way for years now. Once my kids figured out I wasn’t changing things, they adjusted. Just breathe and keep going.

Scantron tests through ZipGrade. Idk why but I swear they fly through tests on computers, but they slow down when it’s printed. Even when they have sources to look through they’ll fly through unless it’s printed.

I think every young teacher who sticks it out past year 5 will come to these conclusions. When I started, every kid was getting an iPad and teachers were using green screen projects and every app imaginable. Now our copy machine line basically wraps around the office in the morning

This is great in theory. But you give a kid a 50 on a paper for 1 day late, and you’ve got admin breathing down your neck. Or god forbid, it’s the end of the grading period and they have a zero-you’ll be forced to accept the late work. It’s exhausting.

I make my 5th graders write an outline and draft on paper first before they type it. I also have Brisk and it shows whether they were typing or copy paste and my few GPT reliant students were SPOOKED when I showed that I have that tech.

You should do tests on books like this. Make the questions really specific to certain characters or plot details so people who only use AI summaries wouldn’t actually be able to answer them. This forces people to actually read at home.
