Dear @teachertapp.bsky.social I'm the American, so I've used all these Americanisms at some point in my classroom (except maybe booger). Kids mimic my use of candy all the time. 🤣

Happy Thanksgiving! This is the first year I have no plans for the big dinner as I’m at a new school. However, I am off the the Natural History Museum with a small group of amazing students this afternoon, so that will be fun.

I would love to green up the chemistry practicals we do, especially at A level for PAGs. We teach OCR A for what it’s worth. Anyone working on this? Beyond Benign has great ideas www.beyondbenign.org but is a US focus. #ChatChemistry

Some favourite Iceland photos from last month.
Me bundled up for the cold with face illuminated and the green of the Northern Lights above me. Me holding an ice pick while standing on Solheimajokull glacier with hills and a lagoon behind me. One of the hydrothermal pools at Geysir with steam billowing out to the right. Me with Gulfoss waterfall behind me.

In August, we moved from Milton Keynes to Horsham in West Sussex. I left a small MAT secondary school to become Head of Chemistry at an incredible independent school. In the first ten weeks, I've had a chance to march in London with the school and go on a school trip to Iceland.

My husband got a Seestar S50 a couple of weeks ago, so of course it’s been cloudy most nights since then, but he got a great shot of the waxing gibbous moon last Wednesday.

First post here. Trying to rekindle the amazing connections I made in the hey day of the other place when we had meetups around rocket launches and great education related discussions among other things.
