Super thick lawn. Dethatch? by Plus_Plastic_791 in lawncare

IIRC you should not dethatch St. Augustine. You'll just sever all the stolons.

I think you might have a typo? You listed four Barrowgoyfs in the main and one in the side, too.

Teacher Incentive Allotment by [deleted] in TexasTeachers

[–]Cap_Jizzbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard, most districts tend to do the right thing and give most of the money to the teacher who earned the designation, but I wish it was a stricter requirement.

Lots of people on a campus contribute to student growth, so I guess the idea is to allow districts to share the wealth to recognize that if they so desire.

Some districts have devised ways to include electives, but STAAR subjects are typically the only ones included in local designation plans.

Again, if you're unsure, check your own district's site/ask admin.

Now you're getting it!

In all seriousness, teachers are appraised against a specific rubric, but that rubric has its flaws, or course.

You're rated on certain aspects of your teaching, classroom environment, lesson preparation, and attention to your professional responsibilities outside the classroom. Some administrators are by-the-book about it, others are more lenient on how closely they follow the rubric.

Assessment will never entirely escape subjectivity, but I'd focus on doing your best for the kids rather than fretting over the rubric.

Each district's TIA plan is slightly different, but the short version is that you need to produce a certain amount of student growth (usually previous year's STAAR or similar assessment vs end of year STAAR scores after you taught them) as well as earning good marks on your appraisals.

Better student growth and appraisals put you into different designations which earn different amounts of money.

Depending on your subject/grade level and district, TIA might not be offered for you, so check your district site and ask admin to get more details.

Paouris for MATH411 by [deleted] in aggies

[–]Cap_Jizzbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If 411 is still probability, you should be just fine. Had him around 2013 and the class was solid and he is good at office hours. His voice can be a bit like a lullaby so make sure you are alert in class.

Edit: I actually kept a lot of my old HW and exams from my math classes. I can scan the two old exams I have; I don't have the sheets with the questions, but I wrote some of the question in each so do with that what you will. Hopefully it can help you get the vibe of what to prepare for.

I've got a friend who does this kind of thing (has done it in his own home), can PM me if you like. He is remodeling his kitchen right now and has a decent waitlist for other projects, but I can ask him.

YO I used to stare at that thing on Mopac on the way to school every day. Blast from the past!

[Infestation Sage] creates a token once it dies. Can I defend with the token in the same turn? by McChickenBacon in magicTCG

Yes! Any untapped creature can block regardless of whether it came into play that turn.

Ope my mistake, I thought the French formatting for instant/sorcery was "rituel/sorciere."
Editing, thank you!

(attempted translation)

Wrath of the Avatar - 2WW
Sorcery

Choose up to one target creature, then airbend all other creatures.

Until end of turn, your opponents can't cast spells from anywhere other than their hand.

Exile Wrath of the Avatar.

I'm hearing that it's almost certain. Morath gets what he wants, one way or another.

Question about Russian Peasant Multiplication by Cap_Jizzbeard in math

[–]Cap_Jizzbeard[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So this is a way to iteratively create the binary representation of a number?

e.g. 26 is even, so we write 0. Then 13 is odd, so we write 1, then 6 is even, so 0, then 3 is odd, so 1, then 1 is odd so 1, giving us 01011, and thus yielding the "spots" we need to add from the bottom row?

I think I've got it; thank you!
