This Year 3 Autumn 2 Baseline Assessment is designed to assess understanding of spelling objectives covered during this term when following our suggested spelling sequence.

Presented in a format similar to that used in formal assessments to build familiarity with those, this assessment can be used as a baseline at the start of the half-term or as an assessment at the end of the half-term. With a teacher script, guidance and a detailed grid explaining which objective each spelling links to and when it's covered during this half-term, this download covers your spelling assessment needs!

• S35: Words ending in ‘tion’

• Contractions

• S36: Year 2 homophones

• S37 Pack 1: Year 2 common exception words

• S37 Pack 2: Year 2 common exception words
