An autistic woman who loves her bed with the ardour usually reserved for a new romantic partner has accidentally broken the concept of time, scientists have revealed.

SCHOOLS! Here are fifteen books. I'm giving them away. If you're a UK school and would like them, let me know. I'll pick one of you this evening. You can share it too, if you like. Ta.

Our reporters took to the streets to ask strangers why they seem to gawp at you whenever you leave the house – and found that it’s because you’re fundamentally bad at being a person and it’s abundantly and offensively obvious to everyone around you.

How do we master our times tables? Let's find out! #TDaPE

AI tips #tdape

Super practical session on activities to develop number sense using representations. Love the emphasis on what numbers look and feel like. #TDaPE

#TDaPE conference and @mrlockyer.bsky.social teaching us about how to be an enterprising teacher... I'm enjoying these tiles!

At the #TDaPE conference in London today and we're kicking off by thinking about how AI could be used to mark writing using stylus.

There is so much, much more to read in kids’ books than Walliams or Rowling. It’s an embarrassingly rich world. Check out @louiestowell.bsky.social or @nadiashireen.bsky.social or any number of glorious, funny, heartfelt titles. You’ve got such treats in store without spending blood money.

I do not want Gaston backstory, I do not need Gaston backstory, I reject Gaston backstory he is a fully formed oaf, consuming eggs by the dozen in one of the greatest villain songs ever written, and that is all we need of him

Really interesting thread. I was diagnosed as autistic in September. For me, it's helped me to make sense of a life where I've often felt weird, or other. I'm able to express my need for accommodations with less guilt. But there IS a blurry line. I could have social anxiety. 1/2

If you can figure out how to give a one year old an age appriopriate understanding of polo you've probably earned this insane salary....

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵

It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.

When I see what kind of work some “stars” who are extremely wealthy are accepting, I wonder if they have signed some kind of a chirograph that forces them to do it, or they are just cunts.
