This document provides information for parents of students in Year 3. It outlines the class teachers, Miss Coshan and Mrs Perrins, and support staff. It details the daily classroom schedule and topics covered for the year, including Birmingham, Ancient Egypt, China, survival skills, transport, and British history. Homework includes weekly Power Projects and spellings tested on Fridays. The timetable specifies days for reading books, PE, swimming, and when projects are due. A spelling workshop will be held in November. The behavior policy uses a colored card system for warnings and consequences. Reading is assigned weekly and signing the reading record is expected.

8. Behaviour
At Wylde Green we are trying to improve children’s learning behaviour by changing the
vocabulary that we use with them and our systems for monitoring behaviour.
Children are asked to make the right ‘choice’ with their behaviour and understand that the
consequences are as follows:
Warning.
Move down the ladder ONCE.
Move down again. Once they have moved 3 times, they will be issued a Yellow Card and
will spend the next morning break.
Red cards are issued for serious offences such as fighting (including play fighting),
damaging property and serious disrespect.

9. Reading Comments…
• Your child will be listened to read at least once a week during their guided
reading session. It is still really important for you to listen to your child read at
least twice a week if possible.
• You are expected to complete and sign their Reading Record with them.
• Please ensure books are returned on a MONDAY and FRIDAY to ensure they get
changed.
