Kids Learning About Homophones Quiz - Quiz

Use the homophones from the spelling homework (4) list to complete the following quiz.

2. 1.  _________ class will win the homework competition this quarter.

Explanation

The word "Our" is the correct answer because it suggests that the speaker is part of a specific class and is confident that their class will win the homework competition this quarter. The word "Are" does not provide any specific information about the speaker's class and cannot be determined as the correct answer.

Submit
3. 4.  I _________ I had to pass the test before I could ski on my own.

Explanation

The correct answer is "knew". In this sentence, the verb "knew" is used to indicate that the speaker had the knowledge or awareness of a certain fact or situation. It suggests that the speaker was aware of the requirement to pass the test before being able to ski independently. The word "new" is incorrect in this context as it refers to something that is recently acquired or discovered, which does not fit the meaning intended in the sentence.

Submit
4. 8.  Did you _________ that spring break is the first week in April?

Explanation

The word "know" is the correct answer because it is the appropriate verb to use when asking if someone is aware or has information about something. In this case, the question is asking if the person is aware that spring break is in the first week of April. The word "no" is incorrect because it does not fit grammatically or contextually in the sentence.

Submit
5. 12.  I didn't know _________ sections to choose for my spelling homework.

Explanation

not-available-via-ai

Submit
6. 18.  I had to _________ new folders.

Explanation

The correct answer is "buy" because the sentence indicates a need to acquire or purchase new folders.

Submit
7. 20.  We said good - _________ to our relatives.

Explanation

The correct answer is "bye" because it is the correct spelling of the word used to say farewell or goodbye to someone.

Submit
8. 16.  We couldn't finish reading the _________ article in time. 

Explanation

The correct answer is "whole". In this sentence, "whole" is used to describe the article, indicating that they were not able to finish reading the entire article in time. "Hole" would not make sense in this context as it does not convey the intended meaning.

Submit
9. 6.  She got to school late and _________ she had to hurry to her first class.

Explanation

The correct answer is "knew". In this sentence, the word "knew" is the past tense of the verb "know". It is used to indicate that the subject already had knowledge or awareness of something. In this context, the subject got to school late and because of that, she had to hurry to her first class. The past tense of "know" is the appropriate choice here to convey that she was aware of the situation and had to rush.

Submit
10. 10.  The laces in her shoes were too _________ .

Explanation

The word "loose" is the correct answer because it describes the condition of the laces in her shoes. If the laces were too loose, it means they were not tightly tied or secured, which could cause her shoes to slip off or become untied easily. On the other hand, "lose" is a verb that means to misplace or fail to win, and it does not make sense in the context of describing the laces in her shoes.

Submit
11. 14.  _________ going to buy lunch at the chalet?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Who's". "Who's" is a contraction of "who is" and is used to ask about the person who is going to buy lunch at the chalet. "Whose" is a possessive pronoun used to ask about ownership, so it would not make sense in this context.

Submit
12. 21.  _________ going to Hyland next week to ski and snowboard.

Explanation

The correct answer is "We're". This is because the sentence is talking about a future action of going to Hyland next week to ski and snowboard. "We're" is the contraction of "we are" which is the correct form to use when talking about a future action.

Submit
13. 17.  We stood _________ the door at lunch time.

Explanation

The correct answer is "by". In this context, "by" is used to indicate a location or position. Therefore, the sentence means that we stood near or beside the door at lunch time.

Submit
14. 22.  _________ are the laptops going to be kept?

Explanation

The question is asking about the location where the laptops are going to be kept. The correct answer is "Where" because it is the only option that is related to a location. "We're" and "Were" are not relevant to the question and do not provide information about the location.

Submit
15. 7.  "_________ , you can't go to your locker," said Mr. Thompson.

Explanation

Mr. Thompson is telling someone that they are not allowed to go to their locker. The word "No" is the correct answer because it is a negative response that indicates the person cannot do what they were asking.

Explanation

The computer cases were "by" the cart.

Submit
17. 24.  They _________ going to eat pizza for lunch.

Submit
