Not a bad way to spend some time outside at school!
So lucky that at school we have special activities that we use as rewards for students who demonstrate our positive behaviours. It just so happens Iβm actually supervising (while having a bit of fun!)

Iβve been so happy to start this term at a special school teaching students in my classroom 3.06! I will be focusing on English, Maths, Personal, Social & Life skills with them! I have the most beautiful 8 students and will be at this school until at least the end of the yearππ¨π»βπ«

A6. Research shows
Girls' Perception of Themselves
is shaped by age 6 & they believe they're less likely to be "really really smart" than boys. We must address this, reduce Math Anxiety, & convince girls "every dream is possible." #PrimarySTEMchat

A6 Itβs a simple answer. Why let half of the population miss out on STEM? The hard question is how do we get more girls engaged? #primarySTEMchat #girlsinSTEM

LOVE THIS! One of my class jobs is to water the plants. Iβll have to prompt them to watch the plants over timeβ¦#primarySTEMchat

Time to crack out my microbits to measure light in my classroom to determine optimum conditions for my plants! π±π± #primarySTEMchat

Light is great, can measure what light plants need to grow successfully. Or ideal light in classrooms. #PrimarySTEMchat #STEMnNature

A3 The value in learning something fun is that it invites the students to learn. They start to become more instrically motivated rather than doing it because theyβve been told #primarySTEMchat

A2, 2 memorable projects were engineering a cardboard pin ball machine that highlighted angles where the ball bounced off the sides. Also a hand made mini golf course created with 3D objects for obsticles #PrimarySTEMChat

A2: Authentic integration of maths looks like students not even realising theyβre doing maths. They need to understand & apply the maths concept in order to solve the problem they want to solve eg. Understanding angles to draw with these Probots #PrimarySTEMchat

A2 Iβll be honest I find it hard to integrate maths in #STEM past measurement. One time I did do it meaningfully was when I taught hydraulic forces with syringes and I was trying to explain how smaller area = greater froce. Division helped save the day! #primarySTEMchat
