This is a nice thing for the school to do, although some of them seem a bit tenuous. I guess it shows the school is thinking about their mental wellbeing rather than just results? #MySundayPhoto
Thanks very much. Definitely! They’ve put the hard work in beforehand, the week itself was just about staying calm, doing their best and maybe even enjoying it a bit!
No, I don’t think the Smarties lasted long for any of them. One of my daughter’s friends counted them out and worked out how many he could eat for each day of the SATs 🙂 x
I love this, what a brilliant idea to encourage some positivity in the approach to the exam season. Hope all went well with your daughter’s SATs and wishing your son the best of luck for his GCSEs x

Sweet – I could do with one of these myself for those moments of doubt!
May 15, 2017
That’s a good point! I think we all could 🙂

What lovely idea, we’d like to recreate this at home and it would be fun collecting all the items x #MySundayPhoto

It’s a really lovely idea, I was very touched by how thoughtful it was.

What a wonderful idea, was this from school?
Thank you for linking up

It was from school – for SATs. I think it was a very thoughtful idea.

I’ve seen these sort of things before but not quite so academic based. They are lovely to give and to receive, so thoughtful.

I thought it was very thoughtful too. The kids all seemed very happy to receive them 🙂

I love this idea, I think I need one of these myself ;0)
May 15, 2017
Ha ha, I think we could all do with one from time to time!

What a nice idea! Perhaps more than one marble would work better though…!
May 15, 2017
Ha ha, good point! Thanks 🙂
May 14, 2017
Hi Sarah, very clever! I agree with Sam, I’d need more than one marble that’s for sure! And the smartie wouldn’t last long either!

A great way to reward, value and incentivise
May 15, 2017
Thanks, it certainly is! The kids were all very pleased with them 🙂
May 14, 2017
Love this, it’s been a tough week for them, now my 7 year old has her year 2 sats this week
May 15, 2017
Good luck to her! I think my daughter enjoyed SATs week. It’ll probably be boring to get back to normal.
May 14, 2017
Such a thoughtful idea #mysundayphoto
