Blame Fairly
Read the text below...
Nicki and Khan are good friends. They are in the same basketball team and play together every Saturday. Recently, their team lost a semi-final by two points and they weren't able to get into the finals. After the game, they were all disappointed, but they thought differently about why they had lost the game. Nicki said it was her fault the team had lost, because she missed an important three point shot. Nicki was really angry with herself. She was surprised to hear that Khan thought they had lost because two members of the team arrived late for the game and did not play well. Also, Khan thought it was bad luck that their team's best player was sick and couldn't play.
Blame fairly. How much of what happened was due to you, to others and to bad luck and circumstance?
Me
Others
Bad luck or circumstance
Think of the things that may have gone wrong for you over the past week, write bullet points of the problems and then decide whether it was you, others or bad luck and circumstance that caused things to go wrong. Try to be HONEST! BLAME FAIRLY!

Hello Year 6,
Last week we were looking at Kindness as a core value in PSHE.
During your time in isolation please keep a diary of 'Acts of Kindness'.
Every day, try to do some thing kind for someone in your family. It has to be in your household because none of us can go out until Thursday 15th October!
Bring your 'Acts of Kindness' in to school on Thursday 15th so that we can share what you have done. Each day record -
The date
Who you were kind to
What you did
What the results were - your family's reaction to your kind deeds
If you want to print a Daily Diary form you can click on the link below. If you cannot print from home, simply make a diary from plain paper.
Watch the Kindness Boomerang video again, show your family. Click on the link below.
