Adding Suffixes 'ly' List 3 Quiz

The KS2Gems Spelling Quiz is an engaging educational activity designed for Year 3 and Year 4 students to practice and reinforce their knowledge of adding the suffix 'ly' to words. The quiz is a quick exercise, taking approximately 5-10 minutes, and requires no additional equipment, making it an easy-to-implement classroom activity. It serves as an excellent tool to consolidate the learning of statutory words, spelling rules, and patterns shortly after they have been taught, as well as aiding long-term retention of these concepts.

Throughout the quiz, students are presented with a series of sentences and tasked with selecting the correct spelling of a word with the 'ly' suffix to complete each sentence. For example, they are asked to choose the correct form between options like 'scientifically', 'scientfically', 'scientificully', and 'scientificaly' to fit into the sentence "When you do an investigation, you must think _________." Other sentences require the selection of the right form of words such as 'basically', 'automatically', 'tragically', 'wholly', 'enthusiastically', 'drastically', 'truly', 'terrifically', and 'horrifically'. This exercise not only tests the students' spelling skills but also their understanding of word formation and vocabulary in context.
