Great to return to the lovely Willow Tree Primary to work with each year group team. I supported them with delivering their NCCE #CreativeMedia units with #Chromebook friendly resources. If this is something your staff could benefit from, email: education.team@eduthing.co.uk

👋Hello #EduSky, #TeamCompSci and everyone! We're new here so here's a little intro! We're a small team in the UK passionate about delivering #EdTech, #STEM and #Computing in schools in creative and engaging ways! 👇Check out our blog if you'd like to see more: 🔗https://ucantoo.org.uk/talking-tech

HELP! A while ago now I learnt how to create my own paper-based Scratch blocks that looked like this (think it was on an @wearecomputing.bsky.social course!) and I had a lot of fun with them! I want to create some more, but can't work out how I did it... any suggestions #TeamCompSci?

Teachers are drowning in marking, but is it really helping students? Research shows excessive marking may hurt teacher wellbeing without improving progress. buff.ly/i98PPaW #EduSky

⭐Department for Education continues to fund the National Centre for Computing Education. ⭐ Teachers will still be able to access high quality CPD and teaching resources to support and enrich computing lessons. Find out more 👉 teachcomputing.org/blog/ncce-of...

What a brilliant time @wearebcs.bsky.social this afternoon celebrating 10 years of Barefoot. Great to catch-up with some familiar folks @juliaadamson.bsky.social @neilrickus.bsky.social @craftycomputing.bsky.social and meet some in person for first time, Ben 🤗 #teamcompsci

Tonight I’m reminded of this old idea I often shared on Twitter. An app like this isn’t going to change your life, but the educators you meet here will. Grateful to have a space like this open again. #EduSky #EduSkyChat

Good #ShareStuffSunday morning #EduSky In case you've missed that this is happening, you can sign up for free with an @computingatschool.bsky.social account www.computingatschool.org.uk/events/2025/... and join a host of passionate educators who will share what's working for them... #teamcompsci

Totally brilliant 👏

Last week on #Wonderblocks we met important characters including Go & Stop & we learned how Do blocks make things happen. This week we're learning more about pattern & sequence. Five more episodes arrived on iPlayer today. www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/sho... @computingatschool.bsky.social

My kind of planning! Looking at how we can use Wonder Blocks to teach computing.

Being in the US this week has meant time to catch up on reading and this Schools Week article by Jack Dyson. As an indirect beneficiary of NCCE Computing hubs, this decision is deeply disappointing but a reminder too to redouble my own efforts to continue what I do where I can.

Seeing if my #6amSmugClub #GetUpGetGoing gets more traction here than with my X. Teaching Y6 the programming construct of conditional functions using Scratch with this simple game from Max Wainewright's book. Hope all scrolling by have a terrific Tuesday!
