This chapter really got me thinking about past relationships from my earliest childhood friend to my first love. I started to look back on them and wonder what grade I had given them and why. That of course led me to wonder what would happen if I were to reevaluate the relationships and regrade them- toss out the old rubric and come up with a new one. I found that just the thought of reevaluating my relationship to others made me feel lighthearted and I realized that this idea of giving others an “A” is more about giving yourself an “A”. This idea got me thinking about what the grades we give as teachers say about us....

This is interesting that you would think back to something as personal as your relationships with friends and loves and thought about them in terms of giving a grade. I know that I always think that relationships whether they are gone or still existing as chance to learn about you and others, but never did I equate them as some type of measurements.
I like that fact that this book gives us an opportunity to look beyond media and technology, but a chance to look at self. You really connected by actually thinking about what the grades really say. The grades actually send a message and many students believe we are giving them the grade , not that they are earning them. Grades especially an "A+" over an "A" say so much and just those few points can mean the world.
