Start of Year Spelling Assessment Test A

The "Start of Year Spelling Assessment Test A" is a tool designed for Year 6 students to evaluate their spelling abilities at the beginning of the school year. The test is composed of sentences with missing words that students must listen to and fill in as read by their teacher. The teacher will provide the sentence and the missing word twice to ensure clarity. Students are instructed to write the missing word on the line provided and are reminded to keep their answers private and not to share their sheets with peers.

The assessment is structured across two pages, with the first ten sentences listed on page 2 and the remaining ten on page 3. Each sentence is crafted to test the students' knowledge of specific words that are age-appropriate and challenging enough to gauge their spelling proficiency. For example, students may be asked to spell words that describe physical sensations, actions, or attributes. Upon completion of the test, marks are allocated for each page, and a total score is calculated to measure the students' performance.
