TRAMSKindness Calendar. Weekly Theme: Looking after our animals
Monday Kind to me Looking at the natural world can be good for our mental health. Watch live cameras of pandas (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gm3bQVANtVo) or elephants (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4SiFUNYdTs) and draw what you see. Send us your pictures on Twitter, using @MontgomeryFCAT #KindnessCalendar
Tuesday Kind to others
If you are lucky enough to have a pet, spend 20 minutes playing together today. Try and teach your pet a new trick! If you do not have a pet, you can invite animals to your home by creating a bird feeder (https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=7yV6V6rtpyc).
Wednesday Kind to the world
Many animals are in danger of going extinct. Find out about them here: https://www.dkfindout.com/uk/morefind-out/special-events/endangered-animals/. Design a poster to inform people about what they can do to protect and save endangered animals. Send us your pictures on Twitter @MontgomeryFCAT
Thursday Kind to me Listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQgUEL7Jiqk by yourself or with your family… it’s a famous piece of music that is supposed to sound like a bumblebee flying. As you listen, write, draw or paint what it makes you think about.
Friday Kind to others
Spend some time together as a family taking this quiz: https://www.kidzworld.com/quiz/what-animalpersonality-are-you. Tell us which animals you and your family are most like @MontgomeryFCAT, #KindnessCalendar.
What will be your resilience move this week?
Are tests the best way to check our learning?
How many reasons can you list for why we have exams? E.g. to help us access higher education, get jobs etc.
Some people have requested for the year to be repeated if school closures continue, so young people will have the opportunity to complete the year in its entirety. Do you think this is a good suggestion? If you were given the choice, would you choose to start this school year again? List the pros and cons to this approach.
Are you taking part in home learning activities from school at the moment? Do you think virtual or remote learning suits your style of learning? Talk about why.
SATs, GCSEs and A-Level exams have all been cancelled across the UK. Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has said "exams will not take place as planned in May and June". Pupils, whose exams were
cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, will be given grades estimated by their teachers, the government has said. Education
Secretary, Mr Williamson, confirmed that assessments and examinations will not take place in the current academic year and performance tables will not be published. He added that children will receive their qualifications, "We will work with the sector and
Ofqual to ensure that children get the qualifications that they need. My department is working closely with local authorities,
representatives of early years schools and headteachers, regional schools, commissioners and bodies such as Ofsted and Ofqual
about how to deliver this change as effectively as possible.”
