Started the baby weaning journey with the youngest. Plan for the first few days: avocado, mashed potato (with whole milk), broccoli and rice. Reckon I’ll be batch cooking soon 😁

Merry Christmas to you wonderful lot 🙂🎄

Loving the Gul Dakat posts again.

THIS JUST IN: The Republicans have appointed Gul Dukat to Head the Department of Labor.

Downloaded the new DLC from Disney Dream Light Valley called The Storybook Vale. Met Merida and got Pegasus. Need to work out what the Owl’s favourite food is 😁 #ddlv #maternityleave

Just watched Bake Off…she was robbed! #gbbo

During this episode of The News Agents, Yuval Noah Harari, author of Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI and discusses gathering informatjon and not learning. #thenewsagents #ai #teamcompsci podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

Does it count as the #4oclockclub if you haven’t been to sleep yet? #maternityleave with an 11 weeks old who seems to be doing an experiment on me to see how long a person can go without sleep.

What’s the best way to use a Reading and Phonics books for parents? We’re doing the lilac books so there aren’t words to record. Looking to learn so I can do the best for my son #eyfs #reception #SkyEd

Interesting episode for SEN but especially at 23:30 when someone called Katie talks. #uked #edusky www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Any book recommendations for Reception age pupils? #EYFS

When did my child become old enough to be starting his transition phase to Reception this week?!

Please repost: what are the top five challenges facing women in the sector?

One more week of having my parents staying and then it’s a reality check…alone with two kids, meet M’s Year R teacher and he starts his Induction at School.

Saw this on Facebook. 💜 Given the climate of #Sexism and misogyny, this cheered me up no end! #WomenEd

My 4 year old has just had a drink and said, “ahhh amber nectar”. His Nana has taught him well 😂

Really proud of my students. AQA CompSci looks like students have had the better chance of attaining higher grades. So proud!

Why did I leave the nappy caddy downstairs?! 4am and Wee Man needs a full change of clothes so I’m downstairs having fully changed him, sat on the sofa, watching The West Wing with a mosquito trying to bite us and the wind blowing very strongly outside. I need to sleep.

Bought the jumpers and shirts for Little Man’s first time at school. Next up, trousers and shoes. How many pairs do you recommend for an4 year old starting school?

Disney have dropped the case. Still makes an excellent topic for #ethics lessons #TeamCompSci #EduSky www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Well, my Windows OS machine has now developed a fault. Looks like I get to have some fun researching and buying something else. Any recommendations?

Spurs ended up drawing 1-1 with Leicester. Wonder what this season will hold #coys

Saw this book in Costco. Didn’t have a look at it but thought the cover was making a bold statement.

Just joined as @mrsmounsey.bsky.social recommended it. As I’m on maternity leave, I’m making a lot less sense than usual due to minimal sleep (2 hours so far last night). Interested in all things Computing education, primary education and KS3-5 Computer Science #EduSky
