This week in Ock Class - w/e 23rd October

Dear parents and carers,

We made it to half term- yay! It has been a very long and tiring half term, and your children have worked exceptionally hard. They have coped so well returning to school and with the changes that making us more covid-secure have brought. I was lovely to talk to most of you over the past couple of weeks about your wonderful children and how much progress they are making. If you didn't make an appointment to talk to me, please contact the office and I'll do my best to squeeze you in next half term :)

In English this week we have continued with our independent writing, this time learning how to edit and revise the first draft. We'll continue with this for the first week back after half term, as it's not quite finished yet. We'll do our final redraft and share our finished stories then.

In maths this week we have mainly focused on subtraction, including looking at the column method for subtraction when you need to exchange (or as we called it when I was at school- "borrowing"). Some children were shaky at first but have really been Steadfast Squirrels and Must Do Moles, and I am really pleased to see how much improvement they've made in it over the week. After half term we'll be finishing off our work on addition and subtraction, including looking at estimating answers and using the inverse relationship.

We really enjoyed our interhouse football skills competition this week. Watch this space for the results early next half term!

When we return to school we will be creating some artwork for our Remembrance Day installation, and also carrying out some work based around Children in Need.

I hope that you and your children all get some time to rest and recuperate over this half term break, and I'm looking forward to seeing your children when we return to school for the autumn 2 term.

Mrs B

Three things to ask your child this week:
  1. How do you do column subtraction?
  2. How do you play a ukulele? (HINT- the answer isn't "badly"!)
  3. What's been the best thing about this half term at school for you?
