Finally got around to watching @trythisteaching.bsky.social webinar on Adaptive Teaching; Low Effort, High Impact T&L Ideas to support students. Going to try do better with my word banks and use “so that”, refine my visuals and ditch focus on neatness. #edusky #iteachchem #iteachbio

This will be useful for the new Chemistry specification #edchatie #iteachchem

Ideas for the accessibility portion of the new LC subject plans to be found here. #edchatie

Super day at the @irishsciteach.bsky.social annual conference. Great to see some of the textbooks in the flesh, listen to lots of great discussions and ideas and have chats with other science teachers. Well done to the Kildare branch on a super programme. #edchatie #ISTA25

This might be of interest to teachers prepping for the change to LC Biology in September #edchatie

Super night with the Carlow/KK branch of @irishsciteach.bsky.social with a workshop on the MiniOne DNA electrophoresis kit. See them at the annual conference on April 5th. #IteachBio #lcreform #edchatie

(1/2) A Sunday morning scroll while listening to Morgan Wallen and this line from his new song reasonates “Knowin' I'm a little crazy, but the world's insane” - from respected journals towing the non-sensical American line to non-medical doctors running vaccine research to just the pure lack of

Oide/SEC webinar dates for discussion about the sample papers. School management to book from 31/03 until 10/04. #edchatie

Took our first year’s to see the #MuseumoftheMoon at St. Canice’s Cathedral. It was lots of fun getting them to find the names of the craters and finding the landing site. Plus it looked amazing. #ES4 #JCScience

Too cloudy in the “sunny” South-East of Ireland to see the #lunareclipse for #ES4 in #JCScience 😢

There's a countdown... going to be great! With @carlhendrick.substack.com and @hugheshaili.bsky.social ... can't wait! #iteachphysics www.youtube.com/watch?v=xswW...

It’s been a busy week so far. Had Cluster Day 2 for Biology and we had an excellent presenter. We have 7 Biology teachers in school but can only go to Oide sessions 2 at a time. Still no closer to making teaching sequence decisions but feeling better about it all. #edchatie #lcrefrom

Looking forward to getting my hands on this at the end of the month. Liked the idea of thematic approach (before I had an Oide days) and the types questioning. #edchatie

Some great science speakers on the list. About to listen to @rsc.org Dr Kirsty Turner. Always love listening to her #edchatie #iteachchem
