The @Ri_Science Christmas lectures with @aoifemcl and @theAliceRoberts. Now I am in my mid thirties I am just about getting over my insane jealousy of the children volunteers. #asechat

There may be hope for you if you ever decide to support the technical side, or design some of the eye catching demonstrations, follow @Frans_facts for tips! #ASEChat

(A tangent but it’s quite dangerous that the ‘c’ is next to the ‘x’ on a key board. I’ve so often been close to discussing attire for a certain activity) #ASEChat
And @theAliceRoberts will be at @theASE conference. No way I'm going to be able to play it cool so I'm just going to have to attend in my Time Team tshirt. #biggestfan

We are trying some science of cookery things this hol. @NeedhamL56 is trying her hand at making sourdough bread using the yeasts that exist in organic flour. First loaf just baked #ASEChat
And 50th anniversary of Apollo 8 - arguably the most important space mission? There was a fab programme on radio 4 on Sat- archive hour - with Helen Sharman about it

So organising my life to grab a few podcasts is a task I have set myself. NO excuse now there is a BBC Sounds app! Any suggestions for titles? #ASEChat

Is anyone considering electrifying their clothing? RI have posted how to use conductive thread, LEDs and a coin battery to liven up an old Christmas pullover #ASEChat
Am I allowed to share something not related to sci ed??!! #asechat - if so can thoroughly recommend 'Brexit - a love story?' by Mark Mardell- been broadcast over many weeks on R4 PM. And arguably of course whatever happens will affect all our working lives as science teachers.
This links into the recent climate change summit in Poland. Many children expressing anger and fear over effects of climate change - it needs to have a more central role in school curriculum #ASEChat
Physics Chemistry and biology are each producing a curriculum framework (see latest #SSR) but lots more to be discussed and developed in the coming year. #ASEChat
Is it bad that I've just looked at this https://t.co/7As5jFoaNg & thought "oh no, the people who brought us energy stores are working on the next curriculum"? #asechat
An organisation like @theASE can take a lead in highlighting the issues (see latest ed of EiS) around sustainability, but we also need to do more as well as understand more #ASEChat
And come to @ResearchInSch at 2pm on Friday 11th for ten fantastic IRIS teachers talking about doing research with their students and the benefits it brings
Have you seen @theASE Best practice guidance documents? Just added 3 more: senior leaders, assessment and outdoor learning. Short overviews with lots of links #asechat Including one on Sustainability. Was reminded of these when you talked about David Attenborough and recent EiS
Last Christmas I bought everyone, inc the kids, one of those water bottles that are great insulators. They still have them, all dented and scratched. But I think we reduced single use plastic bottle use by maybe 70/80%. And cool water all day long to boot! #asechat
We went to New Zealand earlier in the year where refuse disposal is taken more seriously than in UK. As a result have bought ourselves insulated cups rather than use 'disposable' Good conversation opener at the airport! #ASEChat
That is an interesting perspective. His article in #SSR invites comments from teachers so I hope you contribute to the discussion #AEChat But although Charles write the article, a committee produced the curriculum framework
Quick heads up #asechat on the 14th Jan 19 will be with me, and we’ll be sharing things we’ve learned from #aseconf just in case you can’t get there #asechat put it in your diary
