“The turnaround in these three states has grabbed the attention of educators nationally, showing rapid progress is possible anywhere, even in areas that have struggled for decades with poverty and dismal literacy rates. The states have passed laws adopting similar reforms that emphasize phonics and early screenings for struggling kids.”
Amazing what happens when teachers actually have to understand how to teach a subject, and stick to it. Enough of the theories from university professors who don’t actually teach children how to read, they need to stop catering to that nonsense, and stick to what actually works.

Retaining 3rd graders as a policy if they are behind. Identifying learning disabilities early.
Retaining kids is expensive but kudos to them for making that a firm policy.
The strict focus on almost solely phonics I’m not as big a fan of. It should obviously be a big portion of a literacy curriculum but there’s more to reading than being able to sound out words.
Yeah but as my kid was going through school ( he is 23 now) they didnt even give a crap about if they spelled words correctly. Phonics is more than sounding out words and much more effective than the rubbish they taught my kid. No child left behind sounds great in theory but it isn’t always the best option
15-16 yr olds working McDonald, ok.
10-12 yr olds working meat packing plants, not ok
What is the age limit for begging on the street?
well that’s one way to look at it, the industrial revolution would have been slowed if children were barred from coal mine/textile plant opportunities…
Jeff Bezos marrying Tony Gonzalez ex wife. Is that true?

Tony G’s ex partner/baby momma.

We *are outside
Unless they meant *Wee outside. I do that sometimes.
Big fight between a parent and ref in Fort Wayne Indiana when one 7th grade basketball team lost to another 78-7. I think they need a 10 run rule in Indiana
shit, I live 15 minutes from Fort Wayne.
do you have a link? I hadn’t heard anything about it.

8th grade basketball? Sheesh.
can’t wait for the next version of “hoosiers”!!!!
Is this so they can flex it to weaker games?
wish in one hand…
Poop in one mouth, pee in another…

Kansas City we have a problem
Total Cap Liabilities: $251,716,771
Top 51: $211,163,708
Team Cap Space: $652,557
we are ranked 31 out of 32 in available space
we did extensions and signed FAs with $72.34 in cap space not long ago, it’s a prob until it isn’t
either Chris Jones get extended or Mahomes restrustures
Trade Mahomes now. Get top dollar, and those trophies are cluttering up the place
Thuney, Kelce, Justin Reid, MVS. All have high base salaries in 2023. Any one could convert a little to bonus to give a little wiggle room.
Once they figure out who will be around a while, they’ll start doing that stuff.
Maybe both?
Wouldn’t think it would be Mahomes. He only just restructured 2 months ago.
Veach is waiting on Burrows deal to get done, and they are reworking Mahomes. The team has already said they are redoing it before the regular season starts
both
No we don’t
you can’t play a full season with that much in cap
successfully
now the Chiefs have 54 million in cap in 2024…..
A move will be made
I’m guessing they are aware of that and have a plan.
Andy walks into Veach’s office, says “Hey Veach! I just saw on the internet we only have $650K in cap money. Is that right?”
Veach says “What?! No, wait, we have to have more than that! But if the internet says so…”
And Andy spit up a cheeseburger.
Throws pencil and says “I’m going to get to the bottom of this!”
Sure they can. Any new signing just has to be equal to or less than the 53rd highest cap number already on the team
hahhhahahahahahahhahahah
the dude took a jab at his own fanbase too
there might be 10K in the stands
Says the guy who routines plays road games at home
is it Friday yet?
The show features opening remarks from Roger Goodell, who does a great job making fun of himself. The show features a star-studded group of guest appearances, with Creed Humphrey, Eric Stonestreet, Tony Gonzalez, Chad Henne, and Patrick Mahomes all showing up to support the Kelce brothers.
is this a biblical thriller inre Joseph?
Oh, dear. Doesn’t Patrick know that it’s his responsibility to control his brother’s life? I mean, isn’t that as obvious to him as it is all the sports fans out there telling him to take control of him, because it’s his duty to parent his adult brother?
Damn, Pat, quit shirking and completely control Jackson for the rest of your career, damn it!
Green Bay gets the 2025 draft
https://www.yahoo.com/sports/nfl-draft-heading-to-historic-small-market-green-bay-in-2025-213001298.html
is there enough facilities to host a draft in Green Bay?
“The only question with giving Green Bay the 2025 NFL Draft is where to put all the people.”
First line of the story
my bad
Milwaukee
120 miles away?
the packers played games in milwaukee sometimes
Not three nights in a row and everyone drove back and forth
Pray for snow!
Just f’ing stupid. The 28 days helps with logistics, but the matchup might not have the perceived increased interest between the flex and kickoff.
exactly
appeasing Amazon I assume, not that I will get a prime subscription anyway
I realized I was streaming all along without understanding it
I love youtube and the movies I watch are free 🙂
It’s for weeks 13 – 17. We should have a good idea of who’s doing what by then
I thought of that, still don’t like it
change is hard 🙂
so is changing bedsheets, don’t like that either….
what is a bedsheet?
blankets?
a spittle covered piece of cloth

Why did Alexa decide not to run for the Senate?
Sorry. I don’t know that one.
She was happy with her job as Speaker of the House :”
so the 2nd wave of sports gambling suspensions might be coming
it is nice to know that the Chiefs cannot possibly bet on sports at our facilities….
“Or when traveling with the team”. Hopefully not, but not guaranteed
the Chiefs won’t be effected by this this upcoming season
