Year 3 Spelling Lists - Whole year.
I have compiled spellings lists to cover 28 weeks of the year. Each week there are words from the national curriculum and words that contain a spelling rule which are taught over 2 weeks. E.g List 1a and 1b have 4 national curriculum words and 4 words that contain the prefix dis- or in-. Each weeks there are 8 words to learn and 3 places to practice on the sheet. There is also a challenge where they could apply using some or all of the word that they have used.
