He/him. Spec Ed educator in Ontario, Canada. Most posts are probably about education, technology, sports, or music. Hoping to find some respectful discourse. (The other place has become a total train wreck now.)
Thanks to @neaptidez.bsky.social for letting me know about this.

There is a great video from Derek Muller explaining how you can end up with random spikes growing out of your ice cubes! Here is the link.

Random question for any #scienceteacher friends out there.

I was making ice cubes in my freezer. The first time I pulled the tray out after they were frozen, my ice is growing little spikes out of them! What's going on here?

I've just been teaching some students about how to research, assessing reliability of sources, etc. I wish I had this picture when we started!

Actually, yes, this and a fantastic set of encyclopedias

Kind of hoping CBC loses track of the time and let's Sum 41 go as loooong as they need to.

OK, I've been thinking about this for a while...

It would be super cool if Stevo32 could join Sum 41 on stage tonight for one final go.

I don't know what the relationship is with all the guys now, but just selfishly as a music fan, it would be cool to see.

Is this true? I didn't notice them. How cool would that be though? Punk rock bands from around the world showing up at the #JUNOS to support the final performance of Sum 41!

Where does someone get one of those jackets? Asking for a friend.

Anyone else surviving through their week of teaching and feeling like this?? 👀

Just me?

Please tell me it's not just me.

Hey everyone. Want something fun for your students to explore? Give this a try!

Just search "Days until Christmas" on Google. Or if you want to be inclusive for those don't celebrate Christmas, as I do, just give the direct link!

Man, after the way the first half went, incredible that the #Bengals still have a chance in this game as we near the end of the 3rd quarter. Wild stuff.

OK, let's get the obvious out of the way. The #Bengals defense is awful & that is being proven again tonight. HOWEVER...

That's three phantom calls in a row from the refs, all against the Bengals, to close the half. In the interest of integrity, #NFL needs to look at this.

Hey everyone. I've heard about these 'starter packs' on Bluesky. Does anyone know if there is a way to browse through the different starter packs? How does one find them?

Hey everyone. I'm a special education teacher in Canada. Hoping to hook up with some fellow educators on here so we can bounce ideas off each other, share resources, etc. I was doing that at the other place, but it's become too much of an unruly mess now. Any PLN chats happening here?
