As a "baby" teacher I participated in @Perimeter's teacher program, EinsteinPlus, and it transformed my teaching practice. Last week (18 years later) I had the privilege to be on the facilitation team at #EPLUS2024 with a great group of humans. My #physics ❤️ is full.

Another successful Science Olympics Season in the books! Thank you @westernuScience @westernuPhysAst for a great day. The hilight for me was watching the @vicparkci Rube Goldberg Team launch a mini me at the end of their machine. ❤️

A photo from my #SNC1W class this week. There were some really creative designs and great discussions about conductors, grounding and electric discharge.

You know what is an unexpected treat @TRIUMFLab? The 7 apple trees that are descendents of the apple tree at Sir Isaac Newton's home. The 6 outer trees represent the 6 sectors of the TRIUMF cyclotron magnet. #physics #iteachphysics

#ScienceOlympics back in action @westernuScience @westernuPhysAst #RubeGoldberg machine - the challenge: carry out a simple task in the most complicated way possible. Extra points for each different physics principle employed - how many can you identify from the winning team?

Last summer I had the pleasure of meeting @AstroKatie while attending #EPlus2022 @Perimeter ...but I forgot to bring my copy of her book. This year at #oapt2023 I didn't make the same mistake twice!

Today in #SNC1W1 we explored the transit method for detecting exoplanets using flashlight stars, Styrofoam planets and the @phyphoxorg light app. Teacher resource from @Perimeter at bit.ly/3MxGycX

Don't throw away those Styrofoam exoplanets! You can turn them into moons 🌙 to show the different phases. Original resource can be found at jpl.nasa.gov/edu/teach/activ… #SNC1W1 #iteachphysics

I am enjoying the space unit in Gr. 9 science. Modeling the expanding universe, a scavenger hunt through the cosmos, analyzing star spectra redshift and creating our own HR diagrams. Resources courtsey of @Perimeter and @cossettej #SNC1W1
