KS2 English Resource – Word Families (Year 3 and 4)

This fully editable teaching resource introduces pupils to word families—groups of words that share a common root. Designed for Year 3 and 4 learners, it can be used for first-time teaching or as a consolidation tool.

This pack includes:

• An 18-slide PowerPoint lesson with step-by-step explanations and discussion prompts

• Three differentiated worksheets (Bronze, Silver, Gold) for varied ability levels

• Activities where pupils match words to definitions and explore relationships within word families

• Answer keys for all tasks to support self- or teacher-led marking

Perfect for SPaG sessions, vocabulary work, or independent grammar practise, Word Families – Year 3 and 4 supports children in developing spelling awareness and word structure understanding.
