My S1 science class enjoyed Tom Lehrer's brilliant "Elements song" when we talked about elements as the building blocks of chemicals. I don't think anyone has tried to learn it yet, but in case you fancy it, you can find Mike Stanfill's animation here. Open the video for full-screen enjoyment (F11 on good browsers) in a pop-up here. |

From Tom Dickson at the Institute of Physics: The ISS is visible from scotland early in May. You can check when (for Edinburgh) here and for other parts of Scotland here. The times are early, the best seems to be about 4 a.m. on Saturday 10th May. If the sky is clear, it should be worth staying up with a good pair of binoculars or a telescope if you have one. |

I'm making experimental changes to mrhood.co.uk. What you see here is the new front end which will eventually give all users of this site better access to stuff they're needing. Use the menus or link lists at the side of the page to go straight to the existing content. |

Some of you will know that I presented at Teachmeet at the Glasgow Science Centre last September and again in Perth earlier this year. I can vouch for these events as being what Ollie Bray calls, "the best CPD". Now the opportunity presents itself for you Southerners to get yourself your own. Click the image for details on how to register and attend - either in person, or as I hope to, virtually. |
