Vocabulary Test- Honors English 9



Vocabulary Test - Honors English 9

Directions: You are going to create your own vocabulary test, using the words you create by using roots. This WILL be your test. By showing me that you can write a test and take it on your own, you will prove that you have learned new vocabulary words this quarter.

Part I: Create 25 words for the test using your roots list. This list should include the word, definition, part of speech, and explanation of why this would be a strong word to add to the dictionary (think about how it can be used, who could use it, etc.). Complete this on the chart provided.

Part II: Design a vocabulary test covering the meaning of these 25 words. Your questions should ultimately show you understand the meaning of the roots and their definitions!

Requirements for the quiz:

• Make sure you give directions for each section! You should mirror directions you’ve seen on other tests/quizzes you’ve taken. (

• You MUST have 25 questions minimum, covering all 25 of the roots.

-You may NOT use more than 7 of a certain type of question. Use the following chart to help you:

|Types of Questions:|Multiple Choice |Matching |Fill in the Blank |Define |

Part III: Create a key. After creating your 25-question quiz that uses all 4 types of questions from the chart above, print out a second copy of the quiz and fill in the answers (as given in the examples).

-----------------------

The image to the left shows you a format to make a test in. You will also be shown examples in class for help. You will want to type it up for full credit, make it neat and organized, and make it look “official”. On the separate key, it would be a good idea to mark the answers directly in a different color to make them stand out!
