Why ready-made quizzes often miss your class

Ready-made Year 6 English quizzes cover general grammar, but your class is working through a specific text, spelling list or punctuation focus, so a quiz built from your own material matches what was actually taught.

Questions drawn from your own text rather than a generic bank
Multiple-choice, true/false and short open questions
An explanation on every answer for self-correction
Free plan includes 3 generations a month, studied in the browser

Example Year 6 English practice questions

In the sentence 'Later that day, we visited the museum,' what is the fronted adverbial?'Later that day' is the fronted adverbial. It tells when the action happened and is followed by a comma, which separates it from the main clause.

In 'The dog that barked at the postman was old,' which word is the relative pronoun?'That' is the relative pronoun. It introduces the relative clause 'that barked at the postman', which gives more information about the dog.

Which punctuation joins two closely related independent clauses: 'It was raining; we stayed inside.'?A semicolon. It links two complete sentences of equal weight that are closely connected in meaning.

Change to the passive voice: 'The chef cooked the meal.''The meal was cooked by the chef.' The object of the active sentence becomes the subject, and the verb changes to the passive form.

Which is correct: 'The cat licked (its / it's) paw.'?'Its' is correct. It is a possessive pronoun, and possessive pronouns do not take an apostrophe. 'It's' only means 'it is' or 'it has'.
