So it all starts today for Joshua as he begins a week of intense SATS exam in preparation for Secondary school. He has worked very hard this year with SATS revision books, homework clubs and extra SATS booster sessions. I am sure he will do his very best this week. The two bits of advice I left him with this morning were 1) Read ever question twice to make sure you understand it, and 2) make sure you re-check every answer at the end at least once. He does have a tendency to rush his work so I hope he stays calm and takes his time over the papers. This time next week it will all be over and he can start to look forward to the summer ahead.
One thing the school have done for the Year 6's is arrange a cooked breakfast at school on the days of their SATS. This is such a cool idea as the kids are really excited about the breakfast club and wake up thinking about that rather than being nervous about the forthcoming exams. Also from what we hear all the kids came out of the breakfast club completely relaxed instead of stressed out with parents nagging them to try their hardest. Such a good idea if you ask me.
