These suffix slides will allow you to explicitly teach prefixes to your students, which will support students when reading and spelling less-familiar words.
Morphology is a powerful teaching tool for developing vocabulary knowledge and building spelling mastery. Many words in the English language have multiple morphemes (word parts that carry meaning) - for example, the word inflexible is comprised of a base (flex), prefix (in) and suffix (ible).
Over 40 different suffix slides are included, with the suffix meaning, origin and word examples.
There is then an editable slide for each suffix, where teachers or students can type in words with that suffix. Alternatively, delete the text boxes and write directly onto your interactive board.
