Paper: Phonics Topic Quiz (Version 1 of 5) | Total Marks: 30 Marks check: Section A: 8 + Section B: 10 + Section C: 12 = 30

Section A: Sounds and Letters (Questions 1–8)

1. B) cup — 1 mark Both cap and cup begin with the /k/ sound. Map begins with /m/, hat with /h/, ten with /t/. Teaching note: Say each word aloud slowly and listen to the very first sound. Do not choose by looking at the letters only. Common mistake: Choosing a word that looks similar instead of listening to the sound.

2. C) get — 1 mark Net ends with the /t/ sound, and so does get. Bed ends with /d/, pin and run end with /n/. Teaching note: Stretch the last sound: "ne-ttt". Compare it with the last sound of each option.

3. B) shop — 1 mark Shop begins with the digraph sh (two letters, one sound). Chip and chin begin with ch; thin begins with th. Teaching note: A digraph is two letters that make one single sound. Practise the mouth shape for sh, ch, th.

4. A) feet — 1 mark The vowel team ee makes the long e sound: "f-ee-t". Fed, fan, and fit all have short vowel sounds. Teaching note: Long vowels sound like the letter's name; short vowels make

Paper: Phonics Topic Quiz (Version 1 of 5) | Total Marks: 30 Marks check: Section A: 8 + Section B: 10 + Section C: 12 = 30

Section A: Sounds and Letters (Questions 1–8)

2. C) get — 1 mark Net ends with the /t/ sound, and so does get. Bed ends with /d/; pin and run end with /n/. Teaching note: Stretch the last sound: "ne-ttt", then compare with each option.

4. A) feet — 1 mark The vowel team ee makes the long e sound: "f-ee-t". Fed, fan, and fit have short vowel sounds. Teaching note: Long vowels say the letter's name; short vowels do not.

5. B) hope — 1 mark The silent e at the end makes the o say its name: "hope". Hop, hot, and him have short vowels. Teaching note: This is the "magic e" rule — the e is silent but changes the vowel sound.

6. A) stop — 1 mark Stop begins with the blend st (two consonant sounds heard together). Snap = sn, slip = sl, spot = sp. Teaching note: Unlike a digraph, in a blend you can hear both consonant sounds.

7. A) make — 1 mark Make rhymes with cake — both end with the /-ake/ sound. Back, cook, and sock do not. Teaching note: Rhyming words share the same ending sound, not the same spelling.

8. C) mat — 1 mark Mat begins with /m/. Bat, bun, and big all begin with /b/. Teaching note: Read the question carefully — it asks for the word that does NOT begin with b.

Section B: Build and Write (Questions 9–14)

9. nging (singing) — 1 mark The full sentence: "He is singing a song." Teaching note: The -ing ending is common for action words.

10. B) train — 1 mark Trane and trayn are incorrect spellings. The long a sound in train is made by ai. Teaching note: The vowel team ai usually comes in the middle of a word.

11. (2 marks — 1 mark each) (a) plan → plane (b) kit → kite Teaching note: Adding a silent e makes the vowel long: plan/plane, kit/kite.

12. (2 marks — 1 mark each) (a) man → can (b) hat → bat Teaching note: Only the first sound changes; the rest of the word stays the same.

13. (2 marks — 1 mark each) (a) rabbit → 2 syllables (rab-bit) (b) umbrella → 3 syllables (um-brel-la) Teaching note: Clap once for each beat: "rab-bit" = 2 claps, "um-brel-la" = 3 claps.

14. (2 marks — half mark per correct digraph) Picture 1 (ship): sh Picture 2 (chair): ch Picture 3 (three apples): th Picture 4 (ring): ng Teaching note: All four are digraphs — two letters making one sound at the end or beginning of the word.

Section C: Read with Sounds (Questions 15–20)

15. Joan, coast, goat, coat — 2 marks (half mark per word, up to 2) All four words contain the oa vowel team. (Goat appears twice but counts once as a word form.) Teaching note: The oa team makes the long o sound.

16. (2 marks — half mark per word placed correctly)

Long i (magic e)	Short i
kite	pig
bike	fin
slide	sit
Teaching note: Kite, bike, and slide have a silent e making the i long; pig, fin, and sit have short i.

17. Any three -ake words — 2 marks (accept: bake, lake, make, take, rake, wake, snake, shake, fake, sake) Example answers: 1. lake 2. bake 3. snake Teaching note: Word families share the same rime (-ake) but different beginning sounds.

18. (2 marks — 1 mark each) (a) green (starts with gr; the colour of grass) (b) star (starts with st; shines in the night sky) Teaching note: Use the clue and the beginning blend together to find the word.

19. (2 marks — half mark per correct vowel team) (a) moon → moon (b) pain → pain (c) see → see (d) boat → boat Teaching note: Each vowel team makes one long vowel sound: oo, ai, ee, oa.

20. (2 marks — half mark per correct split, accept reasonable splits) (a) sunset → sun.set (b) playground → play.ground (c) napkin → nap.kin Teaching note: Compound words split naturally into their two parts; other words split between the two consonants (VC/CV pattern).

Total: 30 marks

Marking tips for parents/tutors:

Award full marks only when spelling is correct in Sections B and C.
For Q17, accept any three correct -ake words not already given.
Praise effort and revisit any phonics rule the child found difficult.
