@nextofficial is this for real? A festive jumper with the PanAm logo on it? When PanAm Flight 103 crashed into the town of Lockerbie on 21st December killing 270 people? Seriously bad taste.

Holiday? Or explaining the digestive system to my own small people

Some S4 doing retrieval practice Tetris to see what they remember after the long break

@miss_shirlaw @colinmcgill No idea if this link will work for you but worth a go: https://t.co/DpH2ysu6zs

Higher Human biologists reviewing their understanding of protein synthesis this morning.

@SoSub_KinrossHS @AnneFrankTrust @CPKLibraries Can't wait to see the final "I Read For...." project!

@AniqaPirzada @ettie2006 was it you I was talking about structure strips with?

This isn't your average prompt guide for teachers.

This booklet is packed full of pedagogy.

Learn how to PREP, the method that's spreading around the world.

I'll show you 40 ways to do this.

Retweet & I'll DM you the full 44-page booklet.

Learning about random, systematic and stratified sampling with Skittles in AH Biology this morning. (Other small round sugary sweets are available)

Tell me it's summer term without telling me....

We didn't have parties to "boost morale"
We didn't have quiz nights
We didn't have champagne
We watched our colleagues die though
We were STEEPED in death
We kept going
We had to
We kept on
So don't you DARE say your parties were "necessary" @borisjohnson
You make me sick.

It seems that @sqanews are currently undertaking research amongst teaching staff and management in secondary schools across Scotland and would be grateful if you could complete an online survey.
Open until Friday 31 March.

They didn't say *not* to share.

@drewburrett @sqanews Where did you find this? Genuinely curious to find out where the communication breakdown has occurred from the SQA releasing it, to me just happening to see it from Twitter

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

@ANiChonchubhair @ScoilFhionain Oooh, this could be a great new toy!

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

Love this!!

[Adam Gorey @MrAJGorey]

6 mins into p3 today. Weeks ago this would be a picture filled with children ambling to lesson. Why?? High challenge and high support for all, coupled with a burning desire from all staff to change the culture. This is just the start!

I’m going to go out on a limb
@DunelmUK, and suggest that most mums will not be delighted with a tablecloth for Mother’s Day. I think most mums want an end to the gender pay gap, equitable access to affordable childcare, and a BREAK. I’m not so sure they want table linen.

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

Food for thought. Especially considering the recommendation by my Union to accept the current pay offer. Any change to qualifications and assessment will almost certainly impact workload. When do we start negotiating that?

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

@MissDiamondBio Oooh, I've done this lesson for years but love this version. The ecosystem labelling is fab and I love the cards stating the points value of each food.

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

Based on Jamie's other work, this could be a really interesting read. I'll certainly be buying it if I don't win a copy!

[Jen Kennedy @Jenologist]

@colinmcgill @ChemEmH @Dr_C_Fleming you seen this?
