Creative.

I am grading papers right now and the question asks kids to list four factors that are used to identify prokaryotes (basically bacteria). This kid wrote:

1. No nucleus (wrong...)
2. Not a eukaryote (same as number one pretty much)
3. Chuck Norris
4. God is the answer to everything. (That's what my reverend says at church)

It's just too bad we can't grade on creativity...I don't think standards based grading would approve though...
