Best grading motivation EVER.

How to get grading done efficiently

1. Record an episode of Jon and Kate Plus 8.*

2. Start episode.

3. Sit with pile of grading at nearby couch/table/floor.

4. Grade until the credits roll.

5. Repeat episode until grading is complete (or your eyes are bleeding).**



Good luck with all your last bits of grading! (for those of you on quarters, oh, I am so sorry for you)


*Yes, the first few episodes might be cute. But just wait. Wait for Kate's shrill harping to begin. Watch a seven year old have a tantrum (on, um, every episode) worthy of a three year old. Enjoy viewing Jon become more and more beat down.

**Extra bonus: the show is VERY effective birth control. It should come with a warning: might cause you to never, EVER want children. Or have sex. EVER again.
