Our Mt Fuji charcoal sketches! The students then worked collaboratively on Google Docs to create a fact sheet on Mt Fuji :) #yr6 #yr5 #stage3 #science #sciencetwitter #scienceandart #artshare #artwork #technology #GoogleEDU

What a great initiative! My students absolutely loved building a tower in 20min. We then went on to build a rainbow in 20min that had to be symmetrical and have a curve. #stem @T4L_DoE @brickmanexp #brickman #stemchallenge #STEMeducation #legomasters #Stage3 #yr6 #yr5

Would your students like to meet @brickmanexp from #LegoMasters?

Put their block based problem solving skills to the test!

Join the T4L team for this online virtual excursion with the #Brickman himself!

The students loved learning about volcanoes through this experiment. We discussed how variables can impact the result of the experiment... This was the result of using a whole container of bi-carb 😂 #Yr6 #Stage3 #sciencetwitter #scienceteacher #science #experiment

I love how our natural disaster artwork turned out. The impact of Australian bushfires. Thanks for inspiring us https://t.co/fPoS5pxUnu #Yr6 #Yr5 #Stage3 #primaryart #middleschoolart #naturaldisasters

Fascinating little life hack, for doing percentages:

x% of y = y% of x

So, for example, if you needed to work out 4% of 75 in your head, just flip it and and do 75% of 4, which is easier.

A survey of 4520 US children finds that those who meet recommended guidelines for sleep, screen time, and physical activity score higher on cognitive tests: https://t.co/SbLbxbf9vB (pdf). The researchers interpret the former as causing the latter. I'm not sure it's that simple.

Today Kindergarten used their knowledge of positional language, length and shapes to problem solve and make DASH move in the shape of a square #mathchat #edchat #coding #codingtweet #robotics #blockly #STEMeducation #Collaboration #problemsolving #ES1 #Kinder

[Ashley Adams @Ashley_Adams5]

Year 2 enjoyed exploring DASH's capabilities this afternoon. We looked at length, angles, position and made connections to clocks. #edchat #mathchat #coding #robotics #STEMed @STEM_Share

Jumped on the @Seesaw bandwagon today and I love it! Many amazing lessons already on there. Students are able to sort items and record their voices independently. #ES1 #kindergarten #kinderchat #ipad #seesawchat #Seesaw #litchat #edtech #engchat #multilitchat #L3

Making connections with skip counting, sharing and using the multiplication sign. Maths is always fun with Kindergarten! #ES1 #mathschat #math #mlearning #edchat #earlyed #handsonlearning
