Spelling – Suffixes – WB. 8/6…

| 0 comments

For spelling this week, I would like you to spend time reading & spelling suffix words…

A suffix is a letter or group of letters that goes on the end of a word and changes the word’s meaning – for example: care + ful = careful.

Sometimes they also change the original words spelling – for example: drop + ed = dropped.

Use these posters to remind you of the suffix rules…

Suffix Rules

You can also recap/learn more about suffixes at this BBC Bitesize link or these series of lessons from BBC Teach

Then practise the suffix words below using these new spelling activities…

You could also search for some suffix quizzes on Kahoot! for a further challenge…
