Year 3 Spelling: Worksheets and Activities.
Share this post, year 3 spelling.
In Year 3, students must keep developing their spelling and phonics skills. As they grow up, they will be learning more complex spellings, making use of dictionaries to check words they don’t know.
Table of Contents
Year 3 spelling on the national curriculum.
Not only are students expected to revise over the material they learned in Year 1 and Year 2 , but they will also dabble into Year 4 material, preparing them for KS2.
Years 3 and 4 share the same spelling words, according to the national curriculum. Therefore, students should be supported in areas they may find challenging.
What Year 3 focuses on
Besides covering the phonics they have previously learnt, students will continue to work on their spelling and phonetic knowledge.
More suffixes
Beginning with vowel letters to words that are more than one syllable
More prefixes
As we know, prefixes go at the beginning of words. Students will focus on prefixes such as un -, dis – and mis – to create negative meanings.
Dis appoint, mis behave and in active.
Possessive apostrophes
This also includes plural words. If you would like more info on apostrophes, click here .
Re-visiting homophones
Homophones are tricky words that sound the same but have completely different meanings, and sometimes, different spellings.
Want to know more? Click here .
Dictionaries
Learning to use the dictionary is something Year 3 and 4 students can expect as they come closer to finishing KS1. Dictionaries are ideal to check their spelling. Additionally, students will have to use the dictionary in KS2, therefore it is important to get students ready.
How spelling is taught
In Year 3, students share the same statutory requirements as Year 4 students for their spelling. Teachers use various methods to help their Year 3 class learn their spellings, from word searches to classic worksheets.
Students will also be expected to do out-of-school learning where they revise their spelling words for the week. Most students have a small notebook to practise spelling, however, online interactive games are also used for homework.
Finding the right resources for your classroom can sometimes be a bit of a “hit ‘Nd miss”, but, it is important to keep trying different things in the classroom. After all, we are all different, including our way of learning. What might work for one student, might be challenging for the other.
That’s why engaging and fun activities are a great suggestion for when learning new things.
Working with Plurals
This worksheet focuses on the suffixes of some words. The goal is that students understand “ -s ” and “ -es ” suffixes, and what happens when we add them to the end of words.
Silent Letter Worksheets
Silent letters in the English language are those that are not pronounced. For example Gnome, Knight, Knowledge. However, that does not mean we can spell them incorrectly. Students in Year 3 must be aware of these letters to spell tricky words. We have created a worksheet for your classroom to complete.
Emile “look, say, cover, write and check” Worksheets
Worksheets are a classic way of helping students spell better. Following the “look, say, cover, spell, and check” method, students can fully learn the required words given by the government on the National Curriculum.
These worksheets are for Year 3 and Year 3 and 4, following the appendix on the National Curriculum. Download them for free below!

Interactive Games
A good way to engage your students with spelling is by using interactive games. Learning with Emile has been designed by teachers for teachers and students. Learning with Emile has tons of resources, especially for spelling and phonics.
If you haven’t tried Learning with Emile, why not request your free demo today!
10-minute challenge
Choose 10 words from your Year 3 spelling word list. The game is simple, you simply say the word aloud and ask students to spend a minute illustrating that word. First, they must spell it on a piece of paper, or in their notebook, then they can draw the word, write it again in different colours – the choice is theirs.
This activity ensures that students spend at least ten minutes of their day learning their spelling words for the week. Students shouldn’t feel like they are competing with their classmates, but instead to compete with themselves. By challenging ourselves, we are able to develop new skills, learn new information and gain confidence!

Spelling Word List for Years 3 and 4
How many of these 100 words can you spell?
2. Develop writing skills
In writing, schools focus on creativity and writing styles; looking at settings, language style, and character within their writing. Your child will also study different genres of writing such as poetry and play scripts.
You will probably notice your child beginning to use column addition and subtraction of three-digit numbers this year, as well as learning about multiplication and division, and using — and applying — their times tables knowledge. They will also cover fractions of quantities, equivalent fractions, angles, parallel and perpendicular lines, area, perimeter, and shape.
Science in Year 3 is engaging and fun. Your child will learn about life processes, rocks, light, forces and magnets, and animals (including humans). How to work scientifically and write up their investigations in a more formal way — using predictions, methods, results and conclusions — is also a key part of this year’s science curriculum.
How can I help my child in Year 3?
1. practise weekly spellings.
You can support your child at home by helping them to learn their all-important weekly spellings — these are usually tested once a week. Take a look at our tips to help with spelling homework .
2. Continue reading
Reading is key this year and there are plenty of ways you can help. It is still important to listen to your child read regularly. Ask questions about what they’re reading. This will encourage your child to think deeply about their reading, whether they’re reading aloud or independently. A fun way to encourage expression is to use silly voices – and even to make the occasional deliberate mistake – as allowing your child to correct you helps them to see why certain punctuation changes the way we read aloud.
3. Diversify their reading
Give your child access to as many different styles of writing as you can. This will assist with their reading fluency and expand their vocabulary and knowledge. Our free eBooks are a great way to do this!
4. Practise maths
In maths, you can support your child at home by practising the relevant times tables (3, 4, and 8 times tables – as well as the 2, 5, and 10 times tables from Year 1 and 2) regularly. This can be done in many ways and different children respond to different styles. Take a look at our help with times tables page to help you.

Year 3 and 4 Spellings - Games and Activities
Schools use a range of different methods to help children learn their spellings. Here are some of the most popular ways to help children learn their spelling words:
1. Wordsearches: spelling words could be hidden in a wordsearch for children to find. If they are learning, for example, how to add +tion to root words, perhaps only the root words could be provided!
2. Hangman: playing a game of hangman on a whiteboard is also another popular way to help children memorise spellings.
3. Anagrams: children could be given anagrams of spelling words which they have to unscramble.
4. Spelling Art : draw an overlapping wiggly line with space in each section you create. Choose one word for each sentence and challenge children to write the word as many times as they can within each section.
5. Word rank : from a range of spelling words, ask children to rank them from what they think are the easiest to spell to the hardest. Try to identify why the words at the bottom are hardest and work on these first. Children could write them out, identifying the trickiest letters and making sure to write these letters larger than the others.
6. Silly sentences : make up silly sentences that use all the words from a given list of spellings. What’s the silliest sentence you can make?!
7. Table tennis spelling: in pairs, children to imagine they are playing table tennis but they bat letters instead of balls! They take it in turns to ping pong each letter in a word in order to each other until they have spelt the word between them.
Year 3 and 4 Spellings - Look Say Cover Write Check
Children are typically given a Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check template which has a list of spelling words they need to learn in the first column. These may be common exception words, mis-spelt words identified in their writing or they may be words with a common spelling pattern they need to learn.
The idea of Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check is that the children take each spelling word in turn. First they will look at the word. The next step is to say it aloud so they can hear it. After that, they cover the word over with either their hand or a piece of paper. Then, they will try to write the word in the next column of the table. Finally, they check their spelling by either removing their hand or the piece of paper. This process can be repeated until children have successfully learnt the spelling.
Here are some possible ways in which the Look, Say, Cover, Write Check technique for learning spellings could be used:
- As a morning task when children come into the classroom before registration
-During spelling sessions as a way to provide practise for children in learning spellings
-As a homework task to support parents in helping children learn their spellings

The activity sheets are structured around the narrative, non-fiction and poetry blocks of the new literacy Framework. The content comes from common Year 3 fiction and non-fiction themes. The activities are designed to support work done across the curriculum as well as in literacy teaching.
The activities follow the main literacy priorities in Year 3 and are designed to be used flexibly. They are intended to be used with an adult: it would be pointless for the child to do them alone. Much of the learning is in the interaction.
Each activity sheet has a clear focus and advice to the adult as well as the child. There are four main types: • Understanding and engaging with texts; • Shaping texts; • Sentence structure and punctuation; • Spelling.
Each unit contains a mixture of the activity types.
