I haven’t had the first mince pie of the season, but I have gone lebkuchen 👌

It's nearly that time of year again! I'll be spending a chunk of December developing demos, wrangling resources, and painting props backstage at the @rigb.org Christmas Lectures! DYK you can attend a venue to watch a live screening as we record the lectures on 11th, 13th and 16th December?

Tomorrow and every day for the rest of the run up to #Christmas ... I'll be sharing my 24 FREE festive science activities - one for every day in advent over on insta, facebook and twitter #ScienceIsEverywhere #FestiveScience #BeCurious #DrJoScience or grab a sneak peek here 👇 bio.link/drjoscience

Unexpected bonus of both of us working from home on the same day: I get to listen to a few minutes of post-lunch guitar practice from Mr Science 🥰 #Vibrations #Pitch #Sound #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

Great to pop into @rigb.org this morning to talk all things #XmasLectures before heading to @newscientist.com Live HQ to listen to the ever-inspiring @jamiebgall.co.uk and network with other passionate professionals #SciComm #PublicEngagement #ScienceIsEverywhere #DrJoScience #BeCurious

Great to see the response from all of The Association for Science Education committees to the DfE Curriculum Review Report. Lots of positives in: ⬇️ reduced content 🔎 focus on practical science 🌍 inclusion of climate change. 1/

I'm looking forward to wearing two of my hats simultaneously this lunchtime as my worlds smoosh together, delivering a webinar to T level science teachers about ethics, data and research integrity. 🧢 🎓 👒 🎩 ⛑️ 🪖 🎩 #ResearchIntegrity #ProfessionalDevelopment #CPD @babrahaminst.bsky.social

This week's #Star CREST Awards #CuriosityClub session saw us being Tree detectives, carrying out a tree survey, measuring, estimating, identifying and discovering! #TreeWeek #MathsWeek #STEM #STEAM #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #STEMEducation #HomeEd

Happy #WorldAnteaterDay 🐾Anteaters are mammals 🦷They have no teeth 👅They use their long sticky tongues to eat 35,000 ants and termites per day! 🐜The are found in South and Central America (and London Zoo!) #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #LivingThingsAndTheirHabitats #PrimaryScience

Browsing in an antique bookshop earlier and I came across these beauties from the 1960s, using the #ScienceCapital teaching approach of personalising, localising and starting with the child! Science for rural schools!! 1/ #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

On #WorldKindnessDay yesterday, I was kind to myself and popped out for a midday walk in some sunshine - which feels extra indulgent given today’s weather! ☔️ 💦 I found plenty of science along the way too #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

Super early start and very excited to be live streaming my show #WondersOfTheHumanBody to schools across HongKong this morning! #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

Much fun was had testing materials for an umbrella to keep teddy dry in #Star #CRESTAwards today

We were formulations chemists today, making and #TestingToothpaste in our #MaterialsWorld block in #STEAMExplorers We made it, tested it and compared to shop bought! Cleaning power was effective but taste let us down! #ScienceIsEverywhere #DrJoScience #BeCurious #Materials #ComparativeTest

It's been an exciting week in the Dr Jo Science household. It was Little Miss Science's official graduation this week. I'm a very proud Mummy of a BSc (Hons) Zoology first class degree holder who has worked incredibly hard! #Graduation #Zoology #STEMCareers #TheWorldIsYourOyster

It’s #OutdoorClassroomDay Look at this beautiful autumn leaf I found yesterday 🍂 🍁 What will you discover outside today? #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #Seasons #Weather #Geography #Science #PrimaryScience

Hands-on, experiential modelling of the journey through the digestive system today #Year4 #PrimaryScience - a brilliant way to get children engaged in the topic, sneak in lots of vocabulary, content, and uncover misconceptions 🦷👅🧍💩 #DigestiveSystem #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

Modelling types of #Teeth, making observations and thinking carefully about structure and function @ratcliffeprep this afternoon #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #PrimaryScience #STEMEducation

Happy #NationalMoleDay Factlets; ⚛️ A mole is the SI unit of measurement for the amount of substance-defined as containing 6.02×10^23 particles-known as Avogadro's number & is named after the 🇮🇹 scientist Amedeo Avogadro. This number applies to any type of particle, including atoms, molecules or ions.

Fascinating visit to @bodyworldsnl #HappinessProject this weekend #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #Heart #DigestiveSystem #HumanBody

I'm so happy to have now met all of the schools in my Primary Science Quality Mark hubs for this Round. From a local hub of schools across Hertfordshire, to an online hub across England and Wales, I'm so excited to see what incredible development happens in these schools over the year. #PSQM

When today’s commute involves a 45 minute walk through fields, past rivers, woods, yarrow, dead nettle, ragworts, silk cushion spangle oak galls, acorns, carrots, haystacks and some excellent clouds, it’s a good day 🥰 #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

This week in... #STEAM Explorers we have been creating cardboard connectors to use in upcoming design and construction projects in The £2 Tuition Hub (Home Ed Group) #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience 1/3

Fantastic hands-on learning last week with engaging, purposeful science workshops: exploring the Digestive System in #Year4 and the Heart in #Year6 #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience #AnimalsIncludingHumans #HumanBody #Digestion #Food #Teeth #DigestiveSystem #Heart #CirculatorySystem

It was fantastic to be back at @rigb.org at the weekend, presenting all about states of matter, using liquid nitrogen, inflating balloons, overcoming the inevitable when experiments don't work (real science!!) and sharing science fun with a great audience! Thanks for having me!
