All students should have a planner to bring to class and should be actively using it. If your learner has a planner that is blank then they may not be bringing it to class. Work is getting assigned in class and also as homework. Now would be a great time to check Infinite Campus with your learner to see if they have any missing work and also if they need to do any re-takes for their summative work.
