Spellings are an important part of our learning in Year 3 and help children to become confident readers and writers. Each week, children are given a new set of spellings to practise ahead of their weekly spelling test. Spellings are also assigned on Spelling Shed, where children can take part in fun games and activities to help them learn and remember their words.
We encourage all children to practise their spellings regularly at home. Children can earn Dojo points for completing their Spelling Shed assignments and showing a positive commitment to their learning. You can access Spelling Shed by visiting https://www.spellingshed.comwww.spellingshed.com and logging in with your child's school username and password.
