I actually took about 4 hours to mark 17 workbooks "-_- and I didn't even use the internet although I logged on. They're doing models now so I have to look through all models 1 by 1. Even if answers are correct, doesn't mean models are correct too. Each workbook had 14 for me to mark.

*clench fist and hit chest, weep silently in heart*

Best thing was many had almost everything wrong. So marking corrections would mean going through everything again. I dreaded model drawing when I was in Primary school. However, I don't recall learning anything about model drawing when I was 8. I only started learning it when I was in Primary 4 and I still found it difficult back then. So it seems like syllabus has been brought forward by 2 years. 8 year olds now are expected to be as knowledgeable as 10 year olds then. And we thought only the value of money has undergone an extreme change due to inflation. Didn't expect brains to be so too.

It's past midnight and I just finished marking. Have not even started on lesson planning.

In deep shit.
