Find below a list of books selected for children in Year 3 (ages 7-8) of average reading ability. If your child is a competent reader or has read all these titles then try the books from the Year 4 list. The list aims to promote reading for pleasure with quality texts that are perfectly pitched for the age group and the curriculum.

In Year 3, you can help your child in Maths by:
 

Ensuring quick recall of the 3, 4, 8 and 50 times-tables (as well as the 2, 5 and 10 times-tables they’ve already learned in Year 2). It is essential that the children know these facts fluently as they form the foundation for a large majority of the work the children will cover during Year 3 and beyond.
