Typically, weekend homework assignments elicit nothing more than groans and eye rolls from unenthused, overstressed students.

But an unusual worksheet handed out by a London teacher this weekend had pupils reacting quite oppositely.

A teacher by the name of Mrs. Thom at Bucklebury Primary School gave the stress-managing worksheet to her year 6 class, as they are preparing for their SATs (Standard Attainment Tests) this month.

The items on the lengthy checklist include childhood favorites, such as going on a bike or scooter ride, eating ice cream or candy and watching a favorite TV program.

She ends the worksheet with a sweet note to her students, saying "Mrs Thom is in charge of worrying - you don't need to. You are all amazing and I couldn't be more proud of you."

The "assignment," which was shared on a community Facebook page called Eyfs Matters on May 7, has garnered more than 64,000 shares and 72,000 likes in the 2 days since it was shared, many from enthusiastic parent.

"What a wonderful teacher, I started to well up reading this," said Facebook user Kevin Finch.

"I'm very fortunate - my daughter is a year 6 in Mrs Thom's class. We have spent a happy day ticking lots of those boxes. I'm passionate about Bucklebury School, a school that believes in growing the whole child," commented Louise Harry.

One commenter even shared a similar 'assignment' their child had received:

SAT preparation or not, Mrs. Thom's amazing weekend assignment sounds like something all of us could benefit from.
