¿Question #219556?
PolarDad: I've been a teacher since 1995 and I just did something for the first time. I graded my 6th grade geography map skills work last night. I decided to record the grades in the morning but forgot and handed back al the papers. I have no idea what they made. Do I 1) ask them tomorrow? 2) just give everyone As? 3) just delete the assignment from my gradebook and give no grade? 4) something else?

pwilz: Tell them they can either take a zero or they can go on a field trip. If they go on the field trip, their geography skills will be tested by having them dropped in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma with a canteen of water and a map of the area circa 1953.
Ruesailmana: Depends on the grades, will they matter in de grand scheme of things?
oriecat: Make them do it again!
Woelf: That would make for an interesting experiment in the future. Actually record their grades, but tell them you didn't and see which ones give an honest response. Granted, you probably already know which ones will and which won't.
PolarDad: @Robin-that was my plan
pricero1: Just ask them what grade you gave - they'll be amused.
