Andrea

I'm afraid I haven't much sympathy with your daughter. I know writing lines isn't educational but they are effective and can be quite a deterrent. My daughter missed two homework assignments and got away with it. The third assignment she missed was for a different teacher and she was given 300 lines. Like your daughter the actual sentence was about two lines long. She got no sympathy from me. I gave her plenty of paper and told her to get writing! My daughter did very little else that weekend but it was a lesson that was long overdue. She hasn't missed a homework assignment since and I don't suppose your daughter will pass notes again.
