Only one thing better than education festivals:

Attending with your brother, @keelkiel.bsky.social 😊

Started Escape from Pompeii with my class today using @literacytree.bsky.social SOW, and they absolutely loved it! The first lesson was a hit—so much excitement and engagement. Anyone else used this unit before? How did your students respond? #EduSky #PrimaryTeaching

Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧 Kicking off the Year of the Snake—hope it’s a good one! 新年快乐! 🎉 #LunarNewYear

As educators, we’re always mentoring and supporting others. What’s the best piece of advice you’d give to someone starting their teaching journey? I’m reflecting on how to help others grow and would love your thoughts! #EduSky

I remember reading this with my year 6 class a few years ago, and when we finished it, a child raised her hand and said, “That is an important book.” I 100% agreed.

Each of us received a key in today’s meeting—a reminder of our uniqueness. The speaker shared her journey with ADD, and her vulnerability moved us all. A great reminder of how important it is to support every child, no matter their needs. #Neurodiversity #EduSky

Interesting! I’ve used AI for comparative judgments, but it’s not efficient enough yet—better for ideas than decisions. I didn’t know ‘inducement bias,’ but relying fully on AI feels risky for now. Will look further on this from what you’ve written, thanks!

Starting a ‘soft challenge’ with workmates: 2L water, 45 mins exercise, 10 pages reading, healthy eating, and only drinking socially. Accountability is key—who else does better with a team? #SoftChallenge

First day back and already feeling the love! A workmate gifted me this ‘Positive Potato’ 🥔—it may be tiny, but it packs a punch of positivity! If this doesn’t spread joy, what will? Go do your thing—you’ve got this! #EduSky

BETT sounds great—the geek in me noticed all the EdTech fun to be had! I’m focusing on using AI in the classroom to make teaching more efficient and help students progress. Anything you’re looking forward to most at BETT?

Today’s vibe: jet lag, Mufasa, and wishing weekends lasted longer. 🦁 Heading back to school tomorrow—time to reset, recharge, and tackle the new term. What’s one thing you’re excited for in 2025 at work? #EduSky

Back in Shanghai and meant to power through the day… instead, I accidentally slept for hours. 😅 Jet lag always wins! What’s your best trick for getting back on track after travel? #JetLag

I watched her in the after show. I had to turn it off within 10 minutes. 😅

Haha thanks, brother-my-brother! Let’s see if I can live up to the hype! 😅 #SiblingGoals

Excited to join BlueSky! 🌟 I’m an international teacher passionate about bullet journaling, AI in education, and supporting mental health—especially for educators. Here’s to sharing ideas and building a positive space. What’s something you’re working on this year? #EduSky
