Snow substitute

Last Wednesday, with record cold temperatures and snowfall being recorded in parts of the UK, Leeds City College closed due to the inclement weather.  To minimise disruption to my students I used the college's virtual learning environment to contact my students, set up a chatroom and make resources available for a virtual session.  In the event, my home internet connection failed and I wasn't able to run the session as I'd planned. No substitute, I suppose, for time together in the classroom.

With my teaching plans on blocks I decided to get out and enjoy the snow with friends.  Doubtless a choice shared by a number of my students!
