R fans! If you or your students want a gentle, free intro to R programming, check out "R for the Intimidated" by @bugsized (my favorite scientist). It was on @DataCamp (h/t @jtleek) but they removed it, so @bugsized put all 27 lessons on @youtube https://t.co/YPy9ICed9C

Research shows that primary teachers show a lot less confidence in their delivery of science lessons compared to other core subjects.

Want to test your subject knowledge for primary science ahead of the academic year?

We have a quiz for you 👉https://t.co/BuGIIBXc8F #STEMQuiz
