Keeping Track of Student Papers
3. Pass Paperwork into Color-Coded Bins
The student who has sorted the papers in order drops them into the color-coded bin, for the particular subject we have just covered:
When I’m ready to check and grade the papers, I pull them from the bin. I look for any missing papers (which is really easy to see, since they are in order!).
After correcting, I enter them into my gradebook app, which has my students listed in number order–it literally takes less than a minute to enter all grades!
And that’s it!
Simple, easy-to-manage, and quick!
I hope this was of help if you are looking to tweak your system, or perhaps if you are just starting out in your teaching career 🙂
