Daniel Mc in Year 3 has been cheering people up with his rainbow, and also trying out drawing a wolf using his hand to draw round. He did a great job, well done Daniel .
On Wednesday 11th March Year 3 had lots of fun doing an science investigation. We wanted to know if different surfaces effect the speed and distance a toy car will travel. We found that the car definitely travelled the furthest on the floor in the hall as it was much smoother than the carpet, yard and grass!
For World Book Day in Year 3, we had everything from the Demon Dentist and Mary Poppins to Billionaire Boy and Cat in the Hat. We had great fun guessing who everyone was and their book title of their books. Superb effort everyone, you all looked amazing!
On Wednesday 5th February year 3 had a fantastic afternoon in science investigating soil! We had to dig up and take samples of soil so that we could investigate it using magnifying glasses. We were able to detect what soil is made up of and found lots of interesting components that we didn’t expect to be there!
Viewers of ITV Tyne Tees News may recognise some budding presenters and actors from St Oswald’s this week. The regional news programme heard of our plans to produce online safety videos with the children and thought they would make a great contribution to their Safer Internet Day piece being aired this week. Children from Year 3 and 5 produced engaging videos, relaying important safety messages and then presented them to their parents and carers at an Safer Internet Day roadshow on Friday 7th February.

His mum and dad were very proud of his achievements this weekend.
Year 3 had a brilliant afternoon on Friday being archaeologists! Hidden amongst the shredded paper were Stone Age artefacts on loan from the Discovery Museum. The mini archaeologists made some thought-provoking discoveries that led them to make educated conclusions about life during the Stone Age time.
On Wednesday 15th January, Year 3 had lots of fun being rock investigators in science and had to categorise rocks into different groups based on their features. Well done Year 3!
