@PrimaryRocks1 #priamryrocks #asechat *confession* I find some of the topics boring. not all. but some. the sort of physics-y ones.

Good: the excitement and opp to investigate own Qs. Bad: lack of time for science #asechat #primaryrocks

well said. BEST- engaged children, worst- not enough time to do more more more #asechat #primaryrocks https://t.co/LY05E5jf3p

#PrimaryRocks #asechat BEST when they get 'it' whatever it is WORST no how in the wow. Usually commercial providers doing this not teachers

So many good things but my favourite bit is when something unexpected causes the kids jaws to drop! #PrimaryRocks #asechat

@PrimaryRocks1 #primaryrocks #asechat Best = when the 'penny drops'. Worst = batteries always being dead when you need them.

Primary science is all about generating excitement and sending kids to high school with a head buzzing with questions #asechat #primaryrocks

@receptiveteach #primaryrocks #asechat that's true - have seen ACE stuff (eg van der graaf - ha ha) and felt v jealous of high school
