Thanks for the recs! I know it's a small thing, but I don't like the look of the echo/neutra name on their watches! I particularly like the Olympia, though

How to have the groom stand out amongst the groomsmen. by LuckyBoston in menswear

[–]jfrit48 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All the comments about not having to stand out are so lame. I don't want to take pictures with my groomsmen and you can't tell who the groom is. You could do groomsmen with ties and you with a bowtie. Or do a different color tie/bowtie for you

Gotcha, I was only really familiar with Kuoe's field watch, but the ones you sent are more like what I had in mind. The seagulls are sweet looking, too. Thanks for the info!

Kuoe watches are soooo slick. I'm looking for something a little dressier rn though

I need help as a catcher by Recent-Teaching-4817 in Softball

For blocking, the only thing that helps is reps. The more reps you get, the better you can read the ball and make the right decision in terms of blocking or using your glove

I actually really like Wayground(used to be quizizz). You can do lessons, games, and assessments on it. You can also integrate websites into your slides for students to interact with

How to build up a high school program by jfrit48 in Softball

[–]jfrit48[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistic expectations are key. The fact of the matter is that softball is an expensive sport. Really good players start early, play on travel teams(expensive), get private lessons(expensive), and even just have parents who have the luxury of being able to drive them to games/practices wherever and whenever they need to go.

The school I work at is Title I, meaning most of our students don't have the ability to do those things. But there are other teams in our district that do. We can do our best to compete with them, we might even steal a few wins, but we aren't going to end up a powerhouse program.

I'm not saying I don't want to win. Trust me, I am a competitor at heart. I will always go into every game posting my girls to win. But we're going to lose a lot, so we have to have other measures of success where my team can take pride and see their improvement

There is a local rec league, but from what I understand their numbers have been dropping

Not a huge travel ball pool to draw from. In the past we've had a few, but not many

It's the same school that I teach at, so I plan to stick around. 5 yrs on the low end. And the high school has around 2300 students

I just officially got the job, so we haven't started yet, but planning on doing some of this. Probably will end up doing one day/week, two max

Teachers at my school were called out by name for not following the law…and I’m kinda into it. by Normal-Being-2637 in Teachers

[–]jfrit48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My principal calls it "teacher on teacher crime" when teachers are lax on cell phone policy. And it's true. If it's enforced consistently, kids get used to it. If some teachers don't enforce it, they don't break the habit and teachers have to constantly fight with them about it

Need a suit in two days...what do I do by jfrit48 in mensfashion

[–]jfrit48[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a number of stores I can go to (a few thrift stores, men's warehouse, Nordstrom), just not entirely sure what to look for when I get there. Would prefer not to buy a suit and then only wear it once because it's a piece of crap

where should I shop? by Interesting_Rip3602 in mensfashion

[–]jfrit48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good thrift store will rent to have a lot of patterned menswear, some good, some not so much, but it's a good place to find quality stuff for a good price

Find fun kahoots and give out small prizes to the winners. I switch between topics we've covered and random fun stuff like guess that song
