I just sent off the following email to Duckie's home base and math teachers:
Hi Mrs O and Mrs A,
I've been having a problem with Duckie staying on task while doing her spelling and math homework since before the break. She doesn't seem to be having a problem with comprehension, she's just procrastinating and getting distracted easily. Last night's math worksheet took almost an hour to complete and became a major battle so I've implemented a change. Starting tonight, she will have 20 minutes each to finish her daily math and spelling. I'm hoping she won't have very much incomplete work as she doesn't want to disappoint either of you. Hopefully she will be motivated to get it done in a more timely matter.
Please call me at xxx-xxxx if either of you need to discuss this with me or have any other suggestions.
Thanks!

I'll let you know what I hear back...
