spelling test

Word accuracy check

A spelling test is a classroom exercise in which students write words from memory, typically read aloud by a teacher, to demonstrate correct spelling.

The format is standard in elementary education: We have a spelling test every Friday.

By extension, any situation requiring precise spelling: Filling out government forms feels like a spelling test.
