Welcome to tonight’s #chatchemistry

Let’s get kicked of with your recommendations for best resources to support Chemistry ITTs & ECTs

Thanks to everyone who contributed to our first #ChatChemistry here on Bluesky yesterday! If you missed it you can catch up on the conversation here: wakelet.com/wake/W6TXICC...

Couldn’t agree more followed by some parents in if no improvement!

Definitely. If I have a TA with the group I normally give them and extra workbooklet which I’ve made and ask them to fill in the photocopy the pages or keep a copy myself!

Great opportunity for any ECTs to join next weeks conversation

Getting to teach a low ability Year 10 group- find them this the most rewarding class to teach- especially as they don’t rotate so get them all year and can really make a difference

Getting my year 13s more proactive and independent learners.

Remember to use #ChatChemistry in your replies!

I’ve got some good resources on some of this I can dig out next week and send over to you if you’d like!

Yes- I’ve had the only classroom in the department without one and loved it!! As of September I am a Nomad- dreading having to learn to use all the boards in different rooms!

Year 10 - Atomic Structure & Periodic Table
Year 12 Electronic Structure
Year 13 Organic Synthesis

It’s was the most amazing museum- everything was in German and English but had the most amazing display…. Shame it’s not closer would be an amazing trip!

What are your best organisation tips for a teacher without a classroom? I’ve lost my classroom and am all over the department and in different buildings!

Need to get myself organised!! #help

Can’t wait to make new connections @edusky.bsky.social

This is amazing! Thanks @mrsspalding.bsky.social

Hi Bluesky! We saw @chatphysics.bsky.social migrated here so figured it was time for ChatChemistry to make the move, too!

Working on getting a feed set up too, for now please follow if you’re teaching chemistry and use #ChatChemistry in any chemistry teaching discussions here! 🥽
