Year 3 English Worksheets and Workbooks Age 7-8

Our Year 3 English Worksheets and Year 3 Workbooks Boost Academic Success

By Year 3, most kids will have mastered phonics and started reading more fluently. Throughout this year, they will continue to build their vocabulary, reading comprehension skills, and writing skills, and to encounter new kinds of texts.

Mrs Wordsmith has everything you need to help your Year 3 student begin to grow up as a writer, and start developing a more complex storytelling vocabulary. This includes Year 3 English worksheets, books, and Year 3 workbooks, all aligned to the UK National Curriculum. Some of the resources described on this page are appropriate for other age groups as well, so you may have seen them before.

Our collection of Year 3 printable worksheets includes printable spelling workbooks. Spelling is important, because even when it is not explicitly tested, it is still assessed in writing. Start with our Spelling Targeted Practice Year 3 English worksheets pdf, which introduces the key spelling patterns that kids need to know for school at this age. Then, move on to our Spelling Mixed Practice Year 3 worksheets for more activities. These cover an entire year of curriculum, including homophones, tricky spelling patterns, and tricky words. 

All of our KS2 Year 3 worksheets are easy to print at home, and perfect for bite-sized learning. Need a break from spelling? Try our Mrs Wordsmith's 37 House Rules printable workbook, which promotes social emotional learning and self-regulation through hilarious illustrations of research-backed rules and activities.

You can also boost your child's vocabulary (and creativity!) with our Storyteller's range. Research shows that reading by itself is not enough to give kids the vocabulary they need to excel academically – explicit vocabulary instruction leads to better results. Our Storyteller's Illustrated Dictionary is the perfect tool to reinforce kids’ vocabulary and inspire their budding inner storyteller. Stuffed full of hilarious illustrations and over a thousand words, this is the dictionary, reimagined. Meanwhile, Storyteller's Word a Day 1 and 2 foster word consciousness and awareness, with 180 illustrated words and synonyms, word pairs, story starters, and more.  Explicit instruction encourages kids to associate a word with reinforcing, rich information that promotes a deeper understanding of what it means. Without this understanding, kids will struggle with the texts they are reading, and with learning new words that they come across. 

Using the shiny new vocabulary they've mined from our Storyteller's books, kids will love our writing worksheets for Year 3. A writing product that motivates kids to work independently, How to Write a Story contains everything kids need to know about writing captivating stories, from character development and writing devices to story graphs and prompts.
