Spelling Test Paper with Sentence Dictation

About this resource

A weekly spelling test, ready to go: blank numbered word-list pages and word-plus-sentence-dictation pages at three lengths, the words and sentences to read aloud on their own page, and the record-keeping around it — a tracker, a class grid, a team or family note, and a filled example.

WHAT IS INCLUDED - 20 pages

TEST PAPER (7 pages)

• 10-Word, 12-Word and 15-Word Test Paper - numbered blank lines only, sized generously, plus a bonus "use one word in a sentence" line
• 10-Word, 12-Word and 15-Word Combo Test Paper - the same word list plus 2-3 sentence-dictation blocks in one sitting
• Dictation Practice - five sentence-dictation blocks with no word list, for sentence work on its own

Setup And Reference

• Start Here - a chooser that matches your situation to the right page
• How It Works - the three page shapes, why the dictation sentences are never printed for the student to copy, scoring options (whole-word or partial credit), and how to read the same word or sentence aloud the same way every time
• Contents - every page, what is on it, and the file's own counts
• Word and Sentence Bank - the one page a student never sees: a 15-word bank (every word a standard short-vowel CVC word or a Fry first-hundred sight word), which words are used on which test page, every dictation sentence to read aloud, and 6 more sentences not tied to any page
• Phrase Bank - starters for a progress note, a family note and a next step, plus a talk-first script

Tracking And Reporting

• Spelling Test Tracker - one student across ten weeks: list length, words correct, sentences with every word correct, notes
• Class Spelling Grid - a whole-class or group snapshot across six weeks
• Progress Note - a team hand-off or family update with blanks for the number or the wording, plus a four-week quick history
• A filled example for an invented second grader: a 10-word test and two dictation sentences, every word and sentence scored against its own table
• Binder Cover and Tabs - a cover, spine label and six divider tabs

What This Is, And What It Is Not

It is a fillable PDF. Every numbered word line, every dictation line, the name and date fields, and the tracker, class grid and note boxes are real type-in fields — click, type, save — and every page also prints clean for pencil work. It is NOT a Google Slides, Google Docs or PowerPoint file.

It is not a spelling curriculum, a scope and sequence, or a claim about which words a given grade must know. The 15-word bank is a verified starting point built from a standard short-vowel word list and Fry first-hundred sight words, not a requirement — write your own class list on any blank line at any time. It does not include audio; you read the words and sentences aloud yourself from the one bank page built for that.

Who This Is For

Special education teachers and case managers giving a weekly spelling test to a small group or an individual student, the paraprofessionals who administer it, and general education teachers who want the same test paper at three lengths for differentiation.
