Applause from a little swinger

Edited to reduce google-ability:
Are you grading those year-end tests from a common national-standard honors class? I teach one of those classes (for bio), and my department chair suggested I apply to be a reader some year.
Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing. This is my third time and I really dreaded having to do it this year, but it's going quite well so far. It's really a great way to see what students and teachers all over the country are doing (and not doing), and it's fun to hang out with teachers from all over the place. I recommend doing it at least once.
Yes, I hope to do so :-) I hear it's a good way to truly understand how to prepare your students for the test. This was my first year teaching, and I have NO idea how well my students might have done. Some of them apparently slept through the short answer, so I expect a handful of ones (frustrating, but such is life).
Thanks for your work as a reader!
