Year 3 starts the statutory Year 3/4 word list and introduces prefixes, suffixes and homophones. Practising a few words at a time keeps it manageable and builds real confidence.

How SpellBee helps with Year 3 spelling
- Grown-ups set the words. Build your own Year 3 word lists, or use the built-in curriculum lists for Year 3 (KS2).
- Children practise safely. Kids sign in with a family code and a 4-digit PIN — no email, no password, and no ads, ever.
- Clear audio and instant feedback. Every word is read aloud in UK English, so tricky spellings are easier to learn.
- Progress you can see. Track mastery and celebrate achievements as spelling improves.
