We welcome the return of our weekly spelling tests, in Year 3!
We will continue to encourage the growth of our vocabulary with word families (to include root words, suffixes and prefixes) and new topic based vocabulary. We will also revisit those High Frequency words that we may be finding tricky.
Phonics (the sounds that groups of letters make within words) will continue to be a focus.
We have provided some links below to some websites that may help you on your way to become 'Spelling Stars'!
These links contains many other interactive links for you to click on (please be aware to only use UK links, as other links may take you to sites with Americanised versions of spelling)...
