Words Ending in 'ant' and 'ance' Quiz

A spelling quiz for Year 5 and Year 6 students focuses on words ending with 'ant' and 'ance'. This quick activity, designed to last between 5 to 10 minutes, requires no equipment and serves as a tool to consolidate the understanding of statutory words, spelling rules, or patterns. It's particularly useful for reinforcing learning immediately after teaching these concepts or for aiding long-term retention some time after the initial lesson.

Students are presented with a series of sentences and must choose the correct spelling of a word that fits each context. For example, they are asked to select the correct form of 'reluctant' from options such as 'reluctunt' and 'reluctint'. Other words they are quizzed on include 'importance', 'contestant', 'assistance', 'significance', and 'pleasant', among others. Each slide presents a sentence with a blank space and multiple-choice answers, challenging students to identify the correct spelling. The quiz is an engaging way to test their knowledge and understanding of these word endings, and it encourages attention to detail and vocabulary development.
