BACK TO WORKSHEETS
Whenever we write, we need to make our work as interesting and varied as possible for our reader.
Having a great vocabulary is the best place to start, but we can also be clever with the words we already know.
A prefix is letters that go at the start of a root word.
A suffix is letters that go at the end of a root word.
Adding prefixes or suffixes to root words change their meanings and intentions.
Think of it as the root word is a tree and the leaves are the suffixes and prefixes - different leaves have a different effect.
In this activity, you will see how to use prefixes and suffixes in your writing.
