Lots of people get 'ie' and 'ei' the wrong way round, so play this quiz carefully.
Year 1 - The Sound ie (chief)
This 'Sound ie' spelling quiz informs KS1 children of the other sound ‘ie’ can make, like in the word ‘chief’. This test includes all the words noted in the National Curriculum and includes words that your child may also need to know.
Sometimes the letters ‘ie’ make an ‘e’ sound. This is one of those tricky sounds where you just need to try and say the word two ways (using both sounds, as an igh and then as an e) and see which one sounds like a word you’ve heard of before. Test your spellings on these ‘ie’ words.
