Why not look up their paces on Daniels's VDOT charts and tell it to them?
I do this and have no problems. I also try to explain the feeling of a tempo run, and its physiologicl benefits so that they know how and why they are doing this. Not every kid runs them correctly ( biggest problem is starting too fast and dying, but thinking it's ok becuse it averaged out), but we've made tremendous progress in the past two years since implementing them.


That is what I do now. But despite being in AP Calculus they still have a hard time figuring that stuff out. Plus with 150 kids it's a time killer. Trying to make it simple and quick.
