I'm going to break my own rules here and recommend a book of my own - but it was created with such love and care by al of us that I think I'll allow it!

Reposts would be amazing.

👩‍💻 We shouldn't underestimate the high levels of support/ professional learning/ time/ exemplification/ resources needed to put new integration approaches, pedagogies and assessments into practice.

Since we’re talking about how much billionaires suck again, here’s a reminder that your local indie bookstore deserves your business this holiday season. They have gift cards and are happy to mail stuff out. Same goes for @bookshop-org.bsky.social. Buy books. Give books. Support bookstores.

Went to the local bookshop Leaf & Bower this afternoon and these are the books my nephew chose after he asked the owner Fiona’s advice on “books for five year old boys.” #shoplocal #buylocal #supportlocal

Someone already lost €50 to them and I'm not the only artist they're targeting - this is a really needless headache right before busy season for artists. I only have one email address (in bio) and won't ask you for money unless you're the elderly billionaire with a diamond mine I'm trying to seduce

📌 Lil' note: ciaraioch.com is now taking Christmas orders for prints, gift cards and value bundles - each archival-quality print on textured heavy paper is made in Ireland, shipped in eco-friendly packaging with discount tracked postage available, and comes with free mini-treats for every customer 🎁

For everyone in Irish education: a proposal to revive #edchatie Monday evening discussions on Bluesky. Every two weeks in term-time.

First session details on the graphic.

Please repost within Ireland as much as poss & spread the word elsewhere.

IMO it’s far too early to put up the Christmas tree, lights and decorations but not too early for these mince pies 🥧 from a local bakery and chocolate shop, Lusso in Ballincollig

Those of us in Irish education used to have a civilised hour's Mon evening discussion each week 'over there' under the aegis of the excellent Fred Boss.

This evening fire in comments with #edchatie too & let's see where we are.

And wave if you're not in this:
go.bsky.app/BqbTnC7

pls 'repost'.

Over the coming days, you might see businesses like us move over.

Give us all a follow.

Repost as much as you can.

Remember, our accounts are not built by social media managers. They are built by us, the owners.

Reposts would be amazing.
