English Worksheets for the Summer Holidays

What about preventing summer learning loss? We know it’s really important to try and encourage students to keep up with the skills gained in class over the break.

That’s why we’ve come up with a way you can keep your Year 5 students going into Year 6 entertained and also learning during the holiday. We’ve put together a series of ready-made worksheets that are available on EducationCity, and designed to meet parts of the Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar aspects of the curriculum. They’re a great help for preparing and getting ready for Year 6.

What’s more, the worksheets are really easy to find – you just need to go to the relevant year in the English/Literacy module and find them with their subtitle in Activities.
