Phonics: Lesson 1 -  Identifying Words with Suffixes

 

Introduction

  • Today, you will read and spell words with suffixes.

 

Visual

  • We are going to learn two suffixes. A suffix is a letter or group of letters placed at the end of a word to create a new word. 
  • Look at the word worker. The suffix -er is added to the base word work. The suffix -er means “one who does something.” So the word worker means “someone who works.”
