Year 2 - Home learning Friday 13th November

   Suffixes  

To use suffixes to generate new words from root words.


These suffixes may help you :- 

-ing, -ship, -er, -ful, -est, -ness, -ly, -ment, -ish, -hood, -dom, -less, -like


Here are some words you know. They are called 'root' words.  Can you make some other words that start with them by adding suffixes ?   (How about 15 new words?)


start         child  

glad           nice 

cold           joy

enjoy         ask 

hope          friend

beauty       free

run            happy
