Another try in using a Chatbot to generate blank-filling questions

 Chatbot used: Deepseek

Prompt: 

please create a 15-item quiz to assess grade 1 students' ability to use the possessive apostrophe correctly. The 15 questions should be blank-filling questions. The aim is to see whether students can distinguish between apostrophe-s, such as the boy's, and the girl's, and s-apostrophe, such as the boys', the girls'. The nouns used should contain some irregular plural forms such as child-children, and person-people. The nouns used for the questions should also contain some y-ending nouns which will become -ies in the plural form. 

Result: 

Directions: Fill in the blanks with the correct possessive form (’s or s’).

  1. The _____ (boy) hat is blue.
  2. The _____ (girl) doll is pretty.
  3. The _____ (children) toys are on the floor.
  4. The _____ (teacher) book is on the desk.
  5. The _____ (baby) bottle is full.
