Friend needs help! My friend hasn't been doing her homework and she has 6 zeros in the grade book. I'm afraid she is going to fail. What to do?

Talk to her teachers about it and maybe they could contact her mom-trix ]
Make her feel like there is a reason to try.
And give her stickers. I like stickers and wish people randomly gave them to me. ]
Find out what's bothering her and tell her that you're concerned that she's going to fail. Ask her if she needed help and find ways how to help her. Invite her to come over your house and study or do homework together or vice versa if your parents will let you do that. She must be going through something for her to act like that. ]
Tell her you are worried about her... and if you aer in middle school grades don't matter as much as highschool or collage! ]
The most obvious answer is: ask her what is going on with her and why she has let her grades become so low. But, beyond the obvious, I think the best thing you can do is to encourage her. Point out the positive, where she is doing well, and set a good example by keeping your own grades up. ]
Try asking her why she isn't doing her homework. Helping her helps you too. If you are comfortable doing so, maybe you should talk to her mom or dad about your concern. She might need more help than just with homework. Let her know that she can call you anytime to talk or help. ]
Well you can talk to her, and ask her if anything is wrong, why isn't she doing her work etc. Once you know the core of her problem, then you should talk to her teachers about it.
But be careful that you don't come across as if you are lecturing her, make sure she knows that you are worried, and you want to help. Try to be her friend, not her mother/ father.
If it is somthing you are particualy good at, offer to tuor her. ]
FIND OUT WHY YOUR FRIEND IS NOT DOING HER WORK
MAYBE SHE IS UPSET ABOUT SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. TRY TO MOTIVATE HER.TALK TO HER AND SUPPORT HER IN ANY WAY YOU CAN, TRY HARD TO FIND THE PROBLEM. BUT NOT AT THE COST OF FAILING YOURSELF. THERE HAS TO BE A REASON THAT SHE IS BEHAVING THIS WAY, MAYBE SHE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE MATERIAL IF YOU FIGURE THIS OUT THEN MAYBE YOU CAN HELP HER.
I HOPE THIS HELPS

The exact same thing applies to me in algebra. Here's what my boyfriend told me:
"If you don't do your homework, you are going to fail. Do you know what that means? It means you will have two options. Option one will be to go to summer school, meaning you won't have a break from school. Option two will be to have an awesome summer, but be extra bummed at the end because when you go back to school you will be with annoying [little kids] and you won't be with your friends. I suggest you best get with the program, sista!"
Try something to that extent.
Homework sucks, sometimes a break it good, but you have to know when to get back to work ]
let your friend know that you are seriosly concerned about her. education is such big thing!-and it is such a shamed to let it go to waste. you may also want to talk to your teacher privately and tell her that you are worried about your friend...maybe you could try helping your friend out with the homework. sometimes people just need to know that someone cares or maybe even just a little inspiration. GOOD LUCK! ]
It seems to me that shes being lazy. Call her over after school for a little study group and help her out a bit.
-shay :-) ]
is she failing because she doesnt understand what she is being taught? if so, maybe you should offer to help her. if she just isn't doing the work, maybe she is having problems with her family, boyfriend, other friends, etc. ]
Find out why she doesn't care about skoo, and then try to help her get over it. Or, if she just hates the teacher... well, nto much you can do about that except to kill the teacher. ^^heh heh, just kidding. ]
Help her with her homework, be there when she does the homework, just dont let her copy or she will not learn go the extra mile to help her out.
