Unit 2 Week 5 Suffixes Spelling Test

Can you LOCATE your child in this group?  This week's spelling list focused on suffixes.  We learned how suffixes, a letter or group of letters added to the END of the ROOT word, can change the meaning.  We know THINKING ABOUT the MEANING of the WORD can help with our understanding of the text!!!

Suffixes:  -ness (state of being or quality)        - ly (like)


example:   weakness (state of being WEAK)        quickly (moving QUICK like)  

                 -less (lack of)                                      -ful  (full of)
example:   careless (lack of CARE)                      beautiful  (full of BEAUTY)

            -est  ( superlative of adjectives and adverbs)

example: greatest ("most" great)
