Year Three Spellings Week Beginning: 30/11/20

This week we would like the children to look at a selection of words they use very often in their writing. They find these tricky as some of them sound similar or the same. By learning them for spellings, we hope they will be able to spell them correctly when writing independently in class.

A good way of helping to learn them is to a) check they can read them b) check they understand their meaning c) practice putting them into sentences verbally.

The Statutory Spellings for this term are:

centre, heart, breath, busy, century, early, caught, eight

they

there

their

were

where

went

hear

here

Gold spellings

money

poor

kind

climb

both

gold

Class Novels We want to the children to love reading and to experience a range of novels. Each half term we read a novel to our class. You could choose to read the same novel at home to promote an open discussion about the content and prepare your child for discussions in class. If they have particularly enjoyed a book you can use the link to search for recommendations based on similar themes or authors.
