22. GRADING ESSAYS

I've never really enjoyed grading other students' essay because I feel like I'm not a very good grader. Even though the rubrics tell me what I should be looking for, it's kind of hard for me to follow. I can never tell exactly if they got the points or not, and I just think I’m an unfair grader. So that’s why I get worried about grading papers. I always feel like I’m doing it inaccurately. But I was actually pretty proud of myself today! I gave that essay a four, and so did those professional people who score AP tests! Pretty impressive, eh? I feel like such a pro.
