TA Week #3 Madison
This week while TAing I helped Mrs. Debbie with an interactive activity on the computer. Tuesday, all of the Brazilians skipped class because they had the TEOFL so we only had about 6 students in class. Mrs. Debbie started the class by playing a game focused on listening and concentration. I lost both times we played. Then we played a game on the computer where students had to listen to a song and then fill out a cloze dictation based on the lyrics. Afterwards, I played a game of memory with listening to words that rhyme against the students. I won of course!!! :) Thursdays class was kind of boring, we just listened to a recording about international students and then discussed how international students benefit America. Then, Friday Mrs. Debbie asked me to help out with grading the TEOFL writing exams. I had to come in at 9 am and stay for two hours. First I listened to a lecture that was made by a guy that is the head for CIES, and then I helped grade papers with Mrs. Debbie and the other teachers. I wasn't very good at grading them and my scores differed from Mrs. Debbie's a lot....oopsies!!!

How did you grade the papers? Did they give you a sheet or rubric or something? (I always find rubrics really confusing.) Also, since your grades differed a lot from Mrs. Debbie's, were you giving higher grades or lower grades? :)
