This Year 3 The, a or an? Prior Learning worksheet covers previous Y3 learning and is a fantastic resource to use to assess children's understanding of identifying and reasoning with vowels before they move on to the main lesson on articles and determiners. With three varied fluency, two reasoning and one application question, children are asked to complete the words by inserting vowels and solve given clues to work out what the word could be.

Use this resource as a way to assess children's prior knowledge before moving on or alternatively, this could be used for those children who are less confident with questions.
