DS1's school, is closed , Yr7
When the original message was posted about the closure, it said work would be set ASAP and that was duly posted about 11:30.
I have had a miserable day trying to get DS to understand it and do it to a decent standard. It was obviously (understandably) set in a rush, most if it involves links to website and making notes. Some of the links don't work and none of it appears to bear any relation to what he's been doing in class. There was no attempt to differentiate for different ability groups, despite setting, the whole yeargroup was set the same work.
Anyway it's done as far as it's going to be today, although I'm not very happy with the standard of work DS has produced (but that's another story) I can't take any more.
My question is was it worth the trouble? What will the school be expecting children to have produced? What can DS have possibly learned from it?

Is there any value at all in the "snow day work"?
