Congratulations! I found Orbital very hard going despite its size so extra kudos to you. Since we’re coming into Autumn I’m going to suggest something witchy…

Thinking Inside the Box: The Creative Magic of Constraint in A quick exploration of a silent film video project which uses the creative magic of constraints to help students explore their creativity, problem solving and lateral thinking.

What a week! Had a wonderful time at the worldwide ADE & ALC meetup where I got to chat a bit about the creative magic of constraint and one of the most fun film projects I’ve ever done in the classroom. 🎬🤫 #AppleEdu

Just two digi gals brightening up week two of summer in the office by trying the viral M&S sandwich - purely in the name of research. 💭

Verdict was mixed - as @misslbairdfc.bsky.social could tell instantly by our puzzled first bite faces! 🍓

Loved this super simple yet effective idea for a QR display in @stfrancisp6.bsky.social! As an extension, learners scan to access a Blooket focused on practicing whichever times table they want to work on. Independent and interactive with pupil choice and reflection on learning and progress. 👌🧮✨

This was absolutely wonderful. Big up the Digi Dream Team. Each and every one of you were a credit to your group, your school and yourselves.

Despite every day feeling a bit like April Fools Day recently, this remains true. Media and information literacy is more important now than ever and April Fools day pranks by big companies can be a great way into discussing the importance of critically evaluating information online. 🤡🤔💭
