Get your class warmed for their lesson on apostrophes for singular possession with this Year 3 Apostrophes 2 Prior Learning activity. This resource includes three varied fluency questions, two reasoning questions and an application question in a ready-to-complete format. The questions are based on an objective from year 2 that is linked to the new learning that takes place in this lesson.

Use this at the start of your lesson, or the day before, to gauge what children already know who might need additional support and who might need an extra challenge. Alternatively, this can be used as an intervention task or a homework activity. There's an easy-to-use answer page to help you whizz through your marking, or use it as a peer or self-assessment tool.
