Statutory Spellings List 5 Quiz

The KS2Gems 2020 Statutory Spellings List 5 Quiz is a concise and engaging activity designed for Year 3 and Year 4 students to enhance their spelling proficiency. This PowerPoint quiz is intended to be a swift 5-10 minute exercise that requires no additional equipment for the children. It serves as an excellent tool to reinforce the learning of statutory words, spelling rules, or patterns that have been taught during the week. Moreover, it aids in the long-term retention of these spellings, even after some time has passed since the initial lesson.

Throughout the quiz, students are presented with sentences and asked to choose the correct spelling of a word to complete each one. For example, they must select the correct spelling of 'heart' to fit in the sentence "When I run fast, my ______ pounds in my chest." Other examples include identifying the correct spelling for 'February', the month following January, and 'grammar', which one might need to correct in their writing. The quiz covers a variety of words, challenging students to recall the correct spelling for terms such as 'forward', 'heard', 'group', and 'guide', among others. It concludes with selecting the correct spelling of 'fruit' to identify a favourite type of food. This interactive approach not only tests students' knowledge but also helps to instil confidence in their spelling abilities.
