Statutory Spellings List 8 Quiz

The KS2Gems 2020 Statutory Spellings List 8 Quiz is a valuable educational resource designed for Year 3 and Year 4 students to enhance their spelling skills. This PowerPoint quiz serves as a quick 5-10 minute activity that requires no additional equipment for the children. It's an effective tool to consolidate the learning of statutory words, spelling rules, or spelling patterns. It also aids in long-term retention by revisiting these spelling concepts some time after the initial teaching has taken place.

The quiz consists of a series of sentences where students must choose the correct spelling of a word to complete each sentence accurately. For example, students are asked to select the correct spelling of the word that would fit in the sentence "_________ it will snow today," with the options being 'perhaps', 'purhaps', 'perhapz', and 'praps'. Other sentences require the correct spelling of words like 'often', 'possession', 'peculiar', 'position', 'opposite', 'possess', 'ordinary', 'popular', and 'particular'. This engaging activity not only tests their knowledge of specific statutory words but also reinforces their understanding of context and word usage in English sentences.
