Year 3 SATs Reading Assessment Practice Pack - Set B

Looking for a year 3 reading assessment?

This comprehension pack has been designed to follow a similar format to the assessments that the pupils will complete at the end of KS2. Using reading booklets formatted in a similar style throughout key stage 2 will help pupils become more familiar with their layout and therefore improve their confidence when approaching reading assessments.

A report about the popularity of football in South America
A short narrative by Jo Franklin set in the stone age
The classic poem 'Margery Brown' by Kate Greenaway

Questions have been mapped against the content domains so that you can identify question types and reading curriculum areas that your pupils may need to revisit.

The comprehension pack includes:

• Reading Booklet: Comprehension B
• Reading Answer booklet
• Content Domains Checklist
• Teachers’ Answers booklet
