Year 3 & 4 Summer Reading and Writing Booklet

A little reading and a little writing, every day of the summer — that’s all it takes to stop the “summer slide” and keep growing readers and writers moving forward. This printable workbook gives children who have just finished Year 3 or Year 4 a gentle, structured 20 minutes a day, Monday to Friday, for six weeks — with everything a parent needs already built in.

Inside you will find:

Daily Reading Log: a simple Monday-Friday log for children to record what they’re reading, reflect on the story and rate how the reading felt.

A Short Daily Writing Task: 10 minutes a day rotating through creative writing, grammar, handwriting practice, spelling & vocabulary, and Fun Friday writing.

Six Fun Themed Weeks: All About Me, Amazing Animals, Under the Sea, Space Adventure, Fantasy & Magic, and Summer Adventure

Tips for Parents: confidence-building strategies geared to Year 3 & 4 readers from choosing their own books to planning before writing and spotting spelling patterns. Playful Reading & Writing Games: eight screen-free activities from Two-Minute Tale to Story Chain ideal for 7–9 year old readers and writers.

Book Suggestions: a curated list of independent and shared reading recommendations for both Year 3 and Year 4 readers, from The 13-Storey Treehouse to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

My Reading & Writing Bookworm Chart: a colour-in progress chart so children can celebrate finishing each week.

Certificate of Achievement: a lovely keepsake to mark completing the whole workbook.
