Use the filter above to narrow the results by resource type.
These Year 3 spelling worksheets cover a mix of word endings, vowel patterns, and common spelling rules.
The collection includes plurals that add -es, along with comparatives and superlatives. There are also sets for r-controlled vowel patterns and diphthongs such as ou, ow, au, and aw, where the same sound can be spelled in different ways.
You’ll also find worksheets for homophones and silent letters (gn, kn, wr), along with contractions such as not, is, and had. These focus on word forms that often cause confusion in everyday writing.
Each rule is grouped into its own set, so the focus stays on one pattern at a time rather than mixing them together too early.
