[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am required to give and grade homework, classwork and an assessment every school day for 147 students.  I teach Social Studies so it isn't like I can have the students grade their own homework and then just turn it in for me to glance over.  I have to enter a grade for each and every assignment and while I make good use of my 30 minute lunch break and 50 minute planning period, there is no way possible for me to plan and grade in this limited time period.  I have kids and they have to be picked up by 6pm from their after-school program so I leave school around 5pm.  Students leave at 3pm so I grade and plan for 2 hrs a day plus the one hour I get to school before school starts.  So I work an extra 3 hrs per day and I average 3-4 hrs on the weekends with grading quizzes, tests and projects.  Some teachers do not get to decide how much grading they have.  We are required to give and grade all of this (and our admin does check on us too!).  [/quote]

You are required to give 3 grades per day per student?   A HW grade, classwork grade AND an assessment grade??

Can the HW grade just be a check or a minus? I.e. spot check -- done or not?   Holey moley that's a lot of grading.[/quote]
