Catch me talking about procedural and conceptual teaching techniques at this year’s national researchED next week. Tickets here tinyurl.com/3fk8pecy

Everything just tickety boo up on the space station.

Just days away from researchED and my talk is complete. Session 4 in room K40 if you like this sort of thing.

Tonight, #BepiColombo will come just 165 km from Mercury’s surface, closer than ever before. The flyby will change the spacecraft's speed & direction, all the while giving us the opportunity to snap images and fine-tune science instrument operations.

Well, here we go then. Into my 17th year as a science teacher. Let the awe and wonder begin! 🔭🔬⚗️🧬🥼🧪🫁🦋🦚🌿🌗🌎🌈☄️❄️🛩️🛰️🏔️🌋🌌📡🔌⚖️🦠🪐👩🏾‍🔬🥽🦑🍁🪺

First Y13 lesson today - a recap of rates of reaction. Doing three rates experiments with instructions on what to do but….then questioning them on what to record. What data was important? How to record it etc. It was surprisingly worthwhile. #ITeachChemistry

Good morning London! Look who’s in town for #rED24 #researchED

Shhh 🤫 Don’t tell anybody but I am speaking at #rED24 in session 4 (12.15 - 12.55 in K30) researchED

It’s funny who you bump into at these events Tom Tomorrow researchED #reED24

After a lovely session 3 with Emma McCrea talking about the difficulties arising from the myth that lesson planning should be done from scratch to be effective, looking forward to getting in conceptual vs procedural understanding with Dr David Boyce (pleased to see my quote early)

Two years to land on Mars. That is ambitious!

Oh no. There is a new reMarkable tablet out and I want it bad. 😞

Eeerrm #RingsOfPowerS2 why am I rooting for Adar?

Today I turned sodium into sodium chloride in this small salt volcano. Video to follow. #iteachchemistry

Another week, another #ChatChemistry coming up on Wednesday (8 pm BST) 💬 This week STEMYMissBanda will be getting us discussing chemistry enrichment activities! Join us over on 🦋

Here we go - making Sodium Chloride More here youtu.be/5GUxWi5RClU?fe… #iteachchemistry Chat Chemistry
