This week in Ock Class: w/e 11th December

Dear parents and carers,

We really enjoyed watching the "Cinderella" pantomime today. Thank you to the Friends for buying us some popcorn!

In English this week we have planned our stories based on "Cosmic". Next week we'll be writing them! The children have worked really hard on their planning and I'm really looking forward to reading their stories.

In maths this week we have worked hard on factors, prime numbers and square numbers. Next week we'll be continuing with this by looking at cube numbers before moving on to multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, 1000. 

In our science lesson this week we learned about levers and pulleys. We watched a fantastic video about pulleys by Destin of Smarter Everyday. You can watch his YouTube channel by clicking the button below:

Three things to ask your child this week:

1. Why does a pulley (or snatchblock) make lifting things easier?
2. What did you enjoy about the pantomime?
3. What's special about prime numbers?
