Spelling
and vocabulary skills will soar
with
this kit! Students begin by learning
how and when to add common suffixes,
such as -s, -es, -ed,
and -ing. They practice the
doubling rule and when to change y to i.
Soon they are building antonyms
and other words using English base
words paired with common prefixes
and suffixes. As they advance,
students
will form more complicated words,
combining prefixes and suffixes
with
root words that have Greek and Latin
origins. Students taking standardized
tests will
benefit from using this kit. Grades
2 and up.
