Year 3 SPaG Scheme – Grammar, Punctuation and Worksheets

Support grammar, punctuation and spelling teaching with our structured Year 3 SPaG scheme of work. Lessons are carefully sequenced to help pupils build confidence with sentence structure, punctuation accuracy and grammatical terminology as they move into Key Stage 2.

This Year 3 SPaG scheme includes differentiated SPaG worksheets, grammar worksheets, interactive teaching slides, practical activities, spelling resources and clear lesson planning linked to National Curriculum English Appendix 2 objectives.

Pupils develop understanding of conjunctions, prepositions, direct speech punctuation, prefixes, paragraphs and sentence structure through small-step teaching that supports fluency, discussion and written application.

Lessons are designed to fit flexibly into busy timetables and can be taught in short 15-30 minute sessions across the week. Read more about suggested SPaG timetabling and structure here.
