Spring Term Grammar and Punctuation Progress Test 2

The KS2Gems2022 Grammar and Punctuation Progress Test 2 is a concise assessment designed for Year 5 students during the Spring Term. The test comprises a variety of questions that aim to evaluate the pupils' understanding of English grammar and punctuation, specifically focusing on the use of hyphenated words, verb forms, possessive pronouns, and conjunctions. Students are given 15 minutes to complete the test, which includes multiple-choice questions, short answers, and tasks where they need to modify words by adding suffixes or hyphens. Each question is allocated a specific number of marks, guiding students on the weight of each question and allowing teachers to assess their progress.

The test is structured to challenge students with tasks such as identifying hyphenated words within a sentence, converting nouns to verbs, and using possessive pronouns correctly. One section requires students to underline or add the correct grammatical feature, while another asks them to tick the correct option from a given set. Additionally, there is an exercise where students must circle the correct word to complete a sentence, and a creative task that involves combining words to form hyphenated adjectives. The test is designed to be engaging and to encourage students to apply their knowledge in a timed environment, with the opportunity to review their answers if they finish early.
