This Magic ‘e’ Review spelling quiz will show elementary school children single clause sentences with magic e spellings. They will need to remember how to apply this rule and identify the correct and perfectly-spelled sentence. Although concentrating on magic e, children should try not to neglect the other spellings and so some sentences will have other HFW (High Frequency Words) spelled incorrectly.
