So I started doing report cards tonight.  I have officially become "then man".  I am giving out grades.  I am determining whether a boy or girl get $10 per A or nothing for an F (don't worry, haven't had to give one out this nine weeks).  I sit and judge as I do these report cards.  Sometimes I wish that I could just give the kids the grades I think they deserve and not what their performance on each assignment says they make.  For instance, I have a student who is extremely smart, but doesn't even try and has a bad attitude.  I would give him a C.  The smarts are there, just no effort. But alas, if he can add 3 digit numbers together and estimate, he gets an A.  In other news, I think everything should receive a grade.  I mean, as a teacher I get evalutated.  If more jobs and tasks were graded I think people as a whole would either increase their efforts or quit.  That would be nice.  Then I say we make all of the quitters head out to California and wall them up.  That way the rest of us "E for Effort" people could get along with life. 

146 more days.
