Neatly made me cry, great work!

Why are any news outlets mentioning the paracetamol story except with the headline
'bam who knows less about science than your cat announces another baseless assertion'.

I would definitely think about discussing this with your union as I can't see any educational justification for so many learning walks.

Survey answers to statements about digital learning. The statements most declared are true are that it reduces teacher planning time and marking time.

Interested in the answers here. Having done 'digital learning' for several years in several situations, including online Advanced Higher, I always want these to be true...yet to see the evidence

Thanks! I had checked out that page, remembering some of the worksheets I'd used before.

Quiet house. Happy.

Hey my #Iteachphysics colleagues.

I've got a friend whose child is sitting GCSE Physics this year and wants textbook recommendations to help with studying at home.

As I teach scottish courses I'm not up to date with what the best ones down south are.
Any suggestions?
#Edusky

Aw that's a shame.

Ha, yes definitely had that!

Ah that's so fun!

Daughter thoroughly backed him up too.

Realities of teaching at the school your kids attend part 27.

Me: I'm sure there's some phrases I use a lot in the classroom.

My dear sweet son: 'Folks'. You say, 'all right folks' a lot. People asked me if you called us folks at home too.

Me: thanks

Something has got to give!

Whereas I'm just back now, so have been looking on your site for a couple of worksheets. Thanks!

My summer in books. Some better than others, and maybe a few more 'we've fecked the world' than is strictly healthy. But some great ones too. I had never read Slaugterhouse five before, but it was a great read. And Adrian Tchaikovsky never disappoints. Service Model was amusing. #BookSky

On holiday, time to relax and listen to the bells from the abbey.

A field of galaxies scattered across the deep black of space. It is filled with galaxies of many shapes, sizes and colors, as well as the multi-colored points of stars. To the lower left is a region filled with the hundreds of golden glittering gems of a distant galaxy cluster. In the foreground, below and left of center, two blue spiral galaxies look like eyes to the left of the entangled mass of a triple merger. A few bright blue points of foreground stars pierce the glittering tapestry.

The image focuses on a collection of interacting galaxies connected by delicate streams of stars. Like spider silk, these stellar bridges link the large elliptical to the few larger galaxies beneath.

A tapestry of glowing tan and pink gas clouds with dark dust lanes. In the lower right, the Trifid Nebula resembles a small flower in space. Its pink gas petals are surrounded by blue gas, and streaked with dark veins of dust. To the upper left, the larger Lagoon Nebula stretches wide like a churning sea of magenta gas, with bright blue, knotted clumps sprinkled throughout

Dense cluster of bright blue stars shining like beacons against wispy nebula cloud of orange and blue. The background is filled with countless smaller stars.

Need a new phone background? Loved the first images from NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory?

We've got you! Save one of these to use, set it, and enjoy the cosmos captured by Rubin every time you use your phone 🌌🔭🧪

Result from Teacher Tapp showing that the majority of respondents who write reports take up to 5 hours to complete them.

Intrigued by the phrasing 'end of year' reports. Is this when these go out for some year groups?
I have ones to complete at various times of the year depending on year group (one per year) giving guidance on mocks or options.
Always intrigued by other systems. #EduSky @teachertapp.bsky.social

A classroom set up with tables and chairs. There is a plastic race track for toy cars running from high up in an open cupboard across a desk and several chairs. There are piles of textbooks to support the track.

Whoop whoop Scottish teachers! We've made it to the end of term!
And what a year it's been.
Today was brought to you by my Higher class playing with Hot Wheels. They even came back after the interval till they got the car from the cupboard all the way into the sink across the room. #PedagooFriday

Teachers desk with a selection of brightly coloured fidget spinners. A couple are in motion, most are stationary.

Today we're going to party like it's 2017.
S3s enjoyed finding the speed of a point on the edge.
Advanced Highers could explore angular velocities.
Perfect for close to the end of term. Just one more week to go!

Gads, I forgot how tiring it was on new timetable day.
Introducing six new classes in a row, my throat is sore even with drinking water all day.
Fun though, but now I'm having a nap.

Fantastic day with fellow Physics teachers at the annual IOP Stirling meeting.
Always great to get subject-specific CLPL. #Iteachphysics #Physics #Edusky

View over fields and trees to the mountains on the Isle of Arran in the distance. The sky is pink in the early morning and the almost-full moon sets over a peak.

Watched the moon set over Arran this morning. 😊

It is. 😊

And they tidy up after themselves. The kids are alright.😂😂

Son also bought herbs during the week as last time someone complained about the lack of seasoning options.

My Friday nights are different now, so rock and roll.
Teen boy has brought 6 friends home with him and they've got Aldi pizzas to cook.
Meanwhile husband and I will get ourselves a chippy and let them be loud in the kitchen.😂😂

Four pieces of paper sitting on a wooden table. each has a section of the YouTube homepage printed on it.

Husband: Did you print this?
Me: No, but it explains the cat hairs on my keyboard.
