After a brilliant Creative Writing session from @amc_education, here’s a way to build character development in the classroom with a Character Wheel looking at character appearance, characteristics and backstory of a Viking farmer using Keynote. #EveryoneCanCreate#AppleEduChat
Excited to start up the Lego Mindstorm project: BUILD YUR MARS ROVER with amazing @Wrightstufmusic .... he is also doing awesome alien doodles. Students will create their ibook and build up a robit to visit Mars. How cool is that?

When I produced a monolayer oil drop experiment a few weeks ago (@CLEAPSS) to show how small particles were, teachers said that the maths (volume of a cylinder) was too much and the there is nothing visble other than glitter, talc or lycopdium shooting back. Consider graphite!
Modern education is premised strongly on materialistic values. It is vital that when educating our children’s brains that we do not neglect to educate their hearts, a key element of which has to be the nurturing of our compassionate nature.

Made a video @CLEAPSS today while youngstes loaded the @theASE conference van. Asked to film making Brady's reagent and disposing of it according to Recipe sheet. Could not resist making the propanone adduct and obtain the crystals. More about 2 4 DNP in https://t.co/ZeAmQISKSO.
Use fine Al (Christmas) glitter to show how 1 drop of 0.01% (w/V) methanolic oleic acid solution moves glitter to obtain a monolayer. Measure the radius of the contracted circle to find the length of molecule. I got 4.7nm. Accpeted value is 1.97nm. @CLEAPSS, #RealTimeChem
