About These 3rd Grade Phonics Worksheets

These printable phonics worksheets were created by an educator with a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, certification in two states, and PK-5 classroom experience. Reading is the gateway to every other subject; students who read confidently by the end of third grade are far more likely to stay on grade level.

Because phonics sits inside decoding, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension of written text, each worksheet reinforces the bigger picture while drilling the specific skill. Students can sustain 20 to 30 minutes and handle multi-step directions.
