Adding Suffixes 'tion' 2 Quiz
English Resource Description
The KS2Gems Spelling Quiz is a quick and engaging activity designed for Year 3 and Year 4 students to help them master the spelling of words ending in the suffix 'tion'. The quiz is intended to take between 5-10 minutes and requires no additional equipment for the children, making it an easy-to-implement classroom resource. 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 to aid in the long-term retention of these concepts.
During the quiz, students are presented with a series of sentences and asked to choose the correct spelling of a word ending in 'tion' to complete each sentence. For example, they need to select the right spelling from options like 'fracshion', 'fraction', and 'fracsion' to correctly state that they have only a 'fraction' of the cake. The quiz covers a variety of words, challenging students to identify the accurate spelling for words such as 'connection', 'subtraction', 'inspection', 'selection', 'prediction', 'direction', 'reaction', 'collection', and 'reflection'. This interactive approach not only tests their spelling skills but also reinforces their understanding of word meanings within context.
