Correcting Conundrum

My students recently took a unit test. That meant time correcting 200 some tests with rapid fire. It also meant correcting their activity books which, for some classes, haven't been handed in for 4 units. I've heard from many-a teacher that the worst part of being a teacher is the correcting. I was there all week. I've still got one last stack of books to plow through. It was a mountain of mistakes, a pile of problems, a collosial correcting conundrum. Here's to all you teachers out there for your many hours of correcting. It isn't pretty, but someone's gotta do it.
