Happy Women in STEM day to my friends Arab Women in STEM! The coolest women who are giving their time to support some of my wonderful Y12 Scholars. #WomeninSTEM #ArabsToMars

In honour of #BlackHistoryMonth , let's kick it off with some inspiration from Katherine Johnson who helped send a 👨🚀 to the 🌕!
I would highly recommemd this book for the budding Mathematician/feminists in your life 🎄 #adalovelace
Sometimes the best lesson you can teach your pupils isn't on the curriculum. Today I will be discussing the historical importance Kamala Harris becoming the Vice President-elect, what it means for them and dancing around the classroom to 'oh happy days'. Trig can wait a day.
Yesterday I had a great coversation with one of my pupils about my #equalclassroom project. Today she brought me in this book, it's her favourite and she wants me to have it 😭🥰 I'm not crying, you are. #whyiteach #WomanEd #GenderEquality
#TinyVoiceTuesdayUnites Im trying to start a CPD project on promoting gender equality in the STEM (and all) classroom. Any advice would be great 👩🏻🏫 #womened #womeninstem #equalclassroom
A pupil made this pirate on his calculator today and the amount of joy it brought me is not normal. #mathsteacherlife
As research for my #equalclassroom project I am reading this by Mrs H And-Sch 🏴🏳️🌈 and @Ask_Mr_McGill. I have really enjoyed the first section on the history of education which has helped me understand the origins of the belief that girls aren't as good at STEM as boys. #girlsinSTEM
I found it interesting that Dr Adam Rutherford highlighted the lack of women at doctorate and professor level in all areas of STEM. This is not a potential career path I ever discuss with pupils, however it will be moving forward! Interview at 20min bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
I really enjoyed listening to this interview with Linda Scott , particularly her comments on women in STEM. She highlighted that women dominate fields in biological sciences, biomed and psychology. She also discussed the science of gender inequality bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
I really enjoyed reading the GEM report and learning about the women who became the first in their families to graduate. As an educator I hope to build a world where there are no more firsts. #Iamthe1stgirl #equalclassroom
