@prof_di_chimica Having done all different permutations of this, (including rotations & split curriculum time) I firmly believe that consistency trumps subject knowledge for all groups.

Provided, structures are in place to support teachers with the content outside of their natural preference.

@MrPat3l Theres a seating plan

@vinyl_chemist @Miss_FLA_Sci Nice - very similar to the approach I use - a shame they don’t have more that just the 3 EQ’s though.

@Map_Addict @ianaddison You aren’t teaching it for you, it’s for the children. Just because you’ve done it before it doesn’t mean they have.

@bw_english When I couldn’t find time/was too tired after work I started doing it before work. It was hard, like ridiculously hard but habits are hard to make and hard to break. I now exercise 4x a week before work & Its normal, I feel fidgety on my day off.

At the end of term tomorrow, 5 days later than planned (switching authority mid-year). It’s been an extremely challenging year professionally, the last 2 terms in particularly but I’m so positive about the year in front. Roll on September and bugger off bubbles.

In the face of so much anti-science propaganda down here on Earth, this picture makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside full of science ☺️

@adamboxer1 Does that actually happen? Aren’t we teaching the use of language in the right context? I’ve never given my weight in Newton’s outside of a scientific context or crossed out weight & put mass when asked what I am in kg. It’s not about teaching kids to have a superiority complex.

@MissFolorunsho This is remote tuition so I’m not sure I agree that it’s so terrible. My philosophy is only use video if it can do what you can’t. Normally this list is short but remotely it’s definitely much longer. I suppose it boils down to did the oak video did something the tutor couldn’t?

[Martin Clee @martin_clee]

@blastmaths I’ve used this strategy to track completion rates through longer activities. I also like the different reactions for MCQ’s and AfL to avoid retyping possible answers into chat

@vinyl_chemist And hey duggie is back!!!

[Martin Clee @martin_clee]

@vinyl_chemist Convenient...

@2ndtimeMama It’s been useful. I use the visualiser lots and find the lag particularly bad when I am, it’s great to have an idea of what students can actually see.

@missdcox Teacher Quiz cos reading upside down is a power only teachers have mastered?
