Spellings
You can continue to practise your spellings on the Spelling Ski game on Learning Beck. Additionally, the Year 3/4 spelling list is also available on this page for you to practise these words.
Spelling Bank is also a good alternative resource to support you with spelling.

Reading
It is important to keep reading and practise the skills you already have. There are so many different things to read and all reading counts. Try to make sure that you are reading every day. Don't forget to look up any unfamiliar words in a dictionary or ask an adult to explain the meaning.

Times Tables
Please continue to engage with Times Table Rock Stars. Look out for battles with other classes and year groups.
