@BCCNSscience @JctScience This looks great, I was only thinking of doing something like this yesterday!

[Ms. Dalton @MsEdalton]

@X Teaching Transition Years in @Colaiste_Einde about taxonomic classification so we built labelled nesting boxes out of recycling. Smallest box 'Species' fits into the Genus box, then Family, then Order, then Class, then Phylum, then Kingdom and finally Domain.

A great double with my TYs where they used what they have learned about the layout of a farmyard to design and build their own dairy farm. My fifth years and leaving Cert were also able to look at them, discuss their strengths and suggest improvements.

@SuzsMas @humphreyjones It was female. There were 2 X chromosomes and no y chromosome.

@BCCNSscience Wow thats brilliant!

Capillary action in different soil types
Had no glass tubes so cut a water bottle and taped the bottom with bandage 😅
Growing grass seed reinforced that the clay soils have better capillary action.

The DNA in a box kit is fantastic, my jcsp class last year loved getting to use them!

[Cell EXPLORERS @Cellexplorers]

Some of our #Science #RoleModels NUIG volunteers Fia, Kate, Alison & Ciara were busy this morning prepping reagents to go into #FantasticDNAInABox kits. Great example of #TeamWork - very important in the life of a scientist! #BelieveInScience

@Katiebguinnane @CoombeHospital Huge congratulations Katie!!

[Ms. Dalton @MsEdalton]

Only coming across these now but they will be helpful for my students revision coming up to exams.

Really interesting research from Holland on milk

If you combine the healthiness and nutrient content with the ecological impact (CO2) then milk is not bad at all. Actually, milk comes out better than plant-based imitations, Irish milk is even better with a low carbon footprint!

Cows eating stones? @tommythevet explores the soil microbiome and the key role it play to all systems and why he seen cows eating stones.

What a great way to study the scientific method 👏

[Ms. Buckley @MsSBuckley]

Using Mystery Boxes to study scientific method w/ LC Biology + 1st year Science. In groups, students note their observations about what might be contained within a certain box. Observations are then debated as a class. Revealing what’s inside the mystery boxes…optional 😆 #NoS1

@Katiebguinnane @CoombeHospital Oh congrats Katie 😍😍

In Denmark, the law requires owners of large agricultural lands to plant 5% of the soil with flowers for bees. https://t.co/Q0cwxsVCUn
