English In English, the children will continue to work on the grammar skills already covered previous years and progressing to the Year 4 expectations. READING spotlight on reading Children should be reading a range of materials as often as possible, and recording their reading in their diaries. Books can be changed in school as they finish them. Year 3 and 4 word lists as well as Year 1 and 2 Common exception words for those who have not secured the knowledge of these yet.
Grammar Grammar is an important element of measuring the children's progress and attainment in writing, so it is essential that they secure and consistently use aspects taught in previous years, such as full stops and capital letters. Without these they are unable to achieve age appropriate standards.
