Snow closure advice S4-S6

Well I don't know what the weather has been like for you over the last couple of days, but I am at home with 3 feet of snow and drifts up to 4 feet. In between power cuts and keeping access to my house and car clear I have been trying to put together some podcasts but with little success so far. I will try again today.

Best advice for S4-S6 classes is to get on with course work, Extended Essays/Dissertations and past papers. Please e-mail me first drafts if you have them. S4 pupils must get Free at Last completed very soon so do your best.

I'm off to clear the snow off my roof!

Higher History Prelim help Podcasts

I'm also at home today due to snow, but actually that means I can do so much more at home on the webpage that I can't do in school so I have made two podcasts to help you get ready for tomorrow. It also means I will get going on marking the NAB and not waste hours driving in poor road conditions!

I hope you have a decent internet connection but I have also put the transcript of these two podcasts on called 'Some Higher History Revision Help' . Let me know if there are any problems with the podcasts. Also, spread the word around via texts etc. Good Luck.

Best to play the 'General' one first.
