Evening all. Just wondering if any of my followers teach BTEC Applied Science L2? @helentheroberts would love to hear from you as she also teaches it and it would be great to get a network together of colleagues to help and support each other. Please retweet. Thank you! 🙂

@SAPS_News Two further holly related activities:
1) quantitative exploring food chains by studying holly leaf miners predated by birds and parasitised by wasps; 2) statistical analysis of numbers of spines on leaves different heights above ground as intro to stats in biol. #ASEChat

This week for #PlantsInScienceCurriculum we present: HOLLY.
Holly is often found growing in school grounds, local parks & woodland & there is a wealth of teaching topics that can be used with this striking prickly plant!

Great session on averages and spread with some fantastic Biology teachers today for @Advanced_Maths in partnership with @theASE. I love that I lead the sessions but also come away having learned something and with new ideas and an increasing love of biology 😁

@MrsDrSarah Beauty is you can observe gills at lots of scales to understand multiplayer effect of increasing surface area. Used to enjoy using them as a model for countercurrent effect when teaching post 16s. Great microscope images!

@ViciaScience Yeah, it's the first time we've looked at them down the microscope, normally just look at whole organ structure. I've got an amazing fishmonger in my local town who gave us 30 salmon heads to dissect!

@Prof_GD_Foster one of my next topics with my A level class is plant disease which invariably gets groaned at as a topic but I want them to find it interesting & embrace it as an important topic so…. Which plant disease are scientists most concerned about at the moment? Why?

@ViciaScience @cravenscience1 @SarahDenisonMEI @CoreMathsTom cubed kilometres... understanding global scales is a cool challenge. Is this a subtle hint? Fancy a collaboration, maybe SSR in Practice @hecharden
