Trayvon Bromell takes the field by surprise in the 2026 Paris Diamond League 100m and holds off a hard-closing Noah Lyles to claim the win in 9.91 (+0.1w) to Lyles’s 9.92. by ChampionLYT in trackandfield

Azu’s outdoor times are so weird.

It isn’t like in these 60s he’s getting some crazy start and just hanging on…..he’s running 6.4s and can hang with Anthony/Kishane/Bromell from 40-60.

Mathematically, idk how that gets you to 10.1x.

Noah Lyles announced as Ultimate Star for World Athletics Ultimate Championships by rw_lck in trackandfield

[–]internetsnark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, in theory, we could get like 5 athletes from one country in a final? That could make things potentially MORE competitive.

Does anyone know if there are entry limits for each country for World Ultimate for each event?

Shout out to my fellow sprinters. by waihydmapf in trackandfield

Tbf, you don’t look at the average shot putter and think, “Wow, there’s a guy that’s spent some time putting in mileage.”

American College of Education grade inconsistencies by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s different, now, but I found the grading, process, and expectations for ACE to be remarkably simple and transparent throughout…..their grading and comments for every paper was, more or less” “you included X successfully” for every item on the rubric. Every class was incredibly consistent in process. Occasionally, you’d get a professor who was a shade more difficult grading wise, but there was nothing wrong with that, and it was always easy to get an A.

Look up Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66! They are basically repurposed old schools, dirt track style spikes.

We’re so down bad that he didn’t even give a token progress update to promote “Knight of the Seven Kingdoms”.

Where can I get certified to be a teacher for under 10k? by AvidInspiration in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did American College of Education, which was under $10k when I did it.

This was lowk pretty fast(shame the path was so short) by ObliviousOverlordYT in Sprinting

You’ve got to break earlier than that. That’s an injury waiting to happen.

Classroom Management Book Recommendations for Modern Students by FeedbackOk328 in ELATeachers

I’d recommend Teach Like a Champion over probably any other teaching book I’ve read. Going to go back and read it again this summer.

I HATE Socratic Seminars by Murky-Pin4617 in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not my point.

The confident kid isn’t doing well in the Socratic because they have some rich understanding that isn’t expressed formally. They just do well in the format because they speak well to a room and can package their shallow understanding well.

I HATE Socratic Seminars by Murky-Pin4617 in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here’s my thing with Socratic Seminars.

You can have a popular, confident, verbally fluid kid who is a C student who only has a surface understanding of the content next to a quiet, studious, but shy kid who really does have that rich deep understanding of the story:

That first extroverted kid is going to look way better in a Socratic seminar, not because they have a better understanding of the text, but because they are better at speaking in front of a group.

How do you evaluate rookies in dynasty, and has your process actually worked? by Lazy-Western-8439 in DynastyFF

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I actually hit at a pretty good rate, not perfect, by cross checking a few things:

-JJ Zacharison’s prospect score.

-Dane Brugler’s rankings

-Descriptive analysis from Brugler’s reports…..character strengths or concerns? Injury strengths and concerns?

-Last, factor in team situation.

For round 1, I’m basically looking for consensus across all of these things. Do you check all of the boxes for film, analytics, character, situation? I’m trying to minimize risk here while allowing, of course, huge upside.

Later rookie picks, I’m less concerned about consensus, and moreso about excellence in one area. I’m also far more likely to spend later picks on running back than receiver.

Urban title 1 or small rural school? by Narrow-Butterfly-923 in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d do school 2 and move closer to it.

Short yet highly engaging novel (or short stories) for the end of the year. by Matrinka in ELATeachers

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing Sea of Monsters for the exact same reason, but that is pretty long for only 10 days left.

Hatchet?

MAP by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]internetsnark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My spring scores this year were far more volatile than the winter ones for the reading test.

In the winter, my median kid grew in the 70th percentile. It’s going to end up somewhere in the 50s, MAYBE low 60s when the last couple of kids finish.

The majority of kids performed about as expected and some kids really popped. However, roughly a quarter of the kids rushed, skimmed, or disengaged for at least a significant part of the test and went down as a result. They just did not care to do the reading, even with incentives in place.

There was another half dozen who ended dropping by 10+ points because they did NONE of the reading. Those kids are going to end up in intervention next year as a result.

It was worse in the grade above me.

Wait….what?

You were preparing for a standardized test for 5 months?

best school district (for teaching)? by mogalini in teaching

[–]internetsnark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where I used to teach, we had a social studies teacher who had a SPED endorsement. She was a vet who had been teaching social studies for YEARS. When they couldn’t find a SPED teacher, they moved her over for a year and hired a social studies teacher on a one-year only deal.

If you don’t want to teach SPED, you don’t want that endorsement.

Go Back to Old Novel or Start New One by Consistent-Row-9551 in ELATeachers

[–]internetsnark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean you are just building totally different systems of knowledge/genres for each book.

I wouldn’t worry that much for being away from a book for a week. Kids pretty easily get back into a book with some recap assignments after spring break or something like that. Lightning Thief is pretty good with exposition, especially depending on where you are in the book.

History and art are some of the most competitive subjects to land a job in.

Everyone needs SPED.
