A Few Degrees Short of A Right Angle

I shouldn’t have said it but I did…

I had one of my SPED students make up a test today. He requires someone to read his test to him. When he came back today he told me that,”You should grade my test easy.”

Me: I’ll grade your test the same way I graded everyone else’s.

SPED: Well you should grade me at a lower standard then the others.

beware this is what i said but i think he needed to hear it.

Me: “Just because you place yourself at a lower standard doesn’t mean that I will. I expect more out of you.

He then proceeded to ask if todays finals review was extra credit or if I was going to take a grade on it.

Duh?
