Pariah Posted May 10 Author Report Share Posted May 10 I like something that came up in one of the animated series—Justice League Unlimited, maybe—where Wally told one of his teammates "Being able to do it fast doesn't make it less boring." This is certainly true for grading papers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted Tuesday at 08:04 PM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 08:04 PM Sometimes when I grade tests, I think to myself, "How did these students ever pass middle school science?" Sometimes when I grade tests, I think to myself, "How did these students ever learn to write their own names?" And sometimes when I grade tests, I think to myself, "How have these students not already been culled by predators?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted Friday at 05:08 AM Author Report Share Posted Friday at 05:08 AM We all got an email after school today from our principal informing us that there is a previously unscheduled mandatory faculty meeting tomorrow morning. No details about what the meeting involves, just when it starts and that it's mandatory. So, that's not ominous or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
