About this resource
Choose from -able, -ed, -ful, -less, -ly and -s to complete ten sentences. Then write a sentence using a base word and suffix of your own.
- Ten sentence-based suffix blanks
- Six-choice suffix bank: ABLE, ED, FUL, LESS, LY, and S
- Original sentence prompt using a root word and suffix
Curriculum reference — England: The mixed suffix bank exceeds the simple Year 2 list; assess the full set before assigning a Year. The suffix task includes -able, supporting the shared Years5–6 suffix programme rather than automatically labelling all suffixes Year2. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
