@adamboxer1 Urgh! My worst nightmare! Had to do this shenanigans during my teacher training. I found this so stressful & a waste of time. Nothing good ever came from it!!
🚀 STEM Club in Action!
Today, we explored Newton’s Third Law with a Pop Can Hero Engine! Using NASA’s Rockets guide, we built a spinning can powered by water jets. 💦
Then, we put our engineering skills to the test—redesigning for speed and efficiency! 🔬💡
🚀 STEM Club Launch Alert!
This term is about propulsion & today’s STEM Club Champions took flight with NASA Straw Rockets! ✈️
A simple yet powerful design, these mini rockets soared over 7 metres in our test flights. Not bad for something powered by just a puff of air! 🌬️🔥
Absolutely loved being at Millmoor today to sing on the Tivoli. We also got to recreate this classic dug out picture, though the lovely @dr_oates is there in place of her Mum ❤️. And @TJHowdle@LukeHowdle have grown
Are you a mentor for a trainee teacher?
🚨🚨Next Sunday I’ll be giving away a FREE copy of mine & Jonathan’s book - Effective Mentoring in Initial Teacher Education.🚨🚨
Like & share this post and I’ll choose someone at random next Sunday morning.
Good luck!
“STEM Club was a magical success! 🧪✨ We mixed dragon scales with tarantula acid, flubalub juice with gorgon’s blood, and unleashed our powers of observation! Precision and curiosity ruled the day. Science is magic. #STEM#CuriosityUnleashed”

Ever wondered which fruit juice has the most vitamin C? 🍊🍋 This week, we explored the @RoySocChem micro-titration technique to find out! Super simple, loads of fun, and packed with science! 🧪💡 #STEMClub#ScienceInAction#VitaminC@STEMLearningUK
@OtisRdg@GeorgeWParker@bphillipsonMP The families in my school didn’t have the digital devices, the money for wifi, or had more children than devices.
We gave out school laptops, bought Wi-Fi-dongles or brought children in to school. State school, disadvantaged area. 110% effort.
Our STEM Club investigates the science of bread-making! We explore how yeast works its magic & discover the unique process behind artisan “signature” breads. Budding bakers! 🍞 #STEM#BreadScience#STEMTechnician@STEMLearningUK
Had an amazing time in STEM Club this week! 🎉 We dove into the world of lighting design for a theatre set, experimenting with colors, shadows, and effects to bring scenes to life. Can’t wait for the next creative challenge! 💡🎭 #STEMClub#TheatreMagic#CreativeTech
@PHoare1963@chemeas You are right. They didn’t exist. You had to memorise equations! The only thing I was given in my A-level exams was a periodic table.
