Ok edu skyers … I’m doing an intro to Google Workspace for my son’s school - what are you ‘must knows’ for primary school teachers?

Ok… so millennial friends…

We’ve basically lived through the birth and rise of social media right through to its dying days - so fascinating!

So comment below, which social media sites, messaging apps & tools did you use? Mine below

Going to put this out there for my #ComputingTeacher friends - any suggestions for Scratch or a Scratch alternative that can be used by a student who needs to use a screen reader? Apparently Scratch itself does not play nicely

I really don’t like busy trains/stations in the morning

I really hate the ‘You only get one mum so you should forgive her for everything’ crowd.

Just need to get that shouted into the void.

Year 1 teachers… you have my eternal respect…. Your faithfully, a computing teacher who is exhausted after an afternoon in Year 1

If you're a primary teacher and have recently used the micro:bit in school we'd love to hear from you! Follow the link below!

Every so often, I read something about #ADHD and it rings scarily true!

Today’s nugget is all about how sometimes ADHD folks struggle to maintain friendships because out of sight is literally out of mind…

Coming to Bluesky & refunding ppl literally shows that in action 🙈

Aaaaaaah Bluesky is suddenly full of people that I'd forgotten that I loved hearing from on the old place. This is the most marvellous feeling in the world!

ICYMI, I got diagnosed with ADHD nearly 2 weeks ago.

I’m still processing, but definitely feels like I’ve found one of the missing pieces to the puzzle of my life.

The consequence for me has been a huge burden lifted off my mental health… and lots of fun arguments with my family 🤪

Hello former EduTwitter folks…

In case you don’t know me, I’m a former primary school computing teacher who now writes textbooks & helps schools with using tech to support teaching & learning.

I also burble about mental health, ADHD, equality, stereotypes and inclusion.

Great to reconnect with lots of #GoogleChampions at the Energiser in London!

Ok, let’s see if posting about ‘things that have had massive interaction on threads’ works here:

Agatha All Along
Heartstopper
ADHD diagnosis
Air fryer (?!)
Buying stationery for my teen niece
Terry Pratchett
And it harm none, do what ye will

Ok, those last 2 are just my likes 🙈😂

Having an absolute blast in Amsterdam with an amazing bunch of Google Innovators #TeamAmsterCat

Suddenly gaining followers here… does that mean I have to start posting here as well as Threads?

Threads vs Blue Sky… so far Threads is winning just because I’ve found more people more easily… 😬
