It doesn't feel good to get a bad grade on a paper — unless, that is, it's delivered in the form of a funny meme. That's what one teacher in Chicago decided to do when she was less than pleased with her high school English students' work.
"I was just grading and I was really frustrated, and in my head I was just like, I wish my kids could see my face my right now, because the answers they were writing were just incredibly wrong," Ainee Fatima, who teaches a media studies class to high school seniors, told BuzzFeed. "So I was like, let’s print out some memes." She printed out the memes on sticker paper and stuck the stickers on her students' papers.
"I was a student who was a victim to the 'red marker' grading while in school, and it gave me immense anxiety about receiving my paper back in class," she told Teen Vogue. "I do not use a red marker, and I think the memes offer a lighthearted look at getting a bad grade."
