Prefix and Suffix Mats
These worksheets have been created to use with students when exploring prefixes and suffixes. They contain sections where students will write the meaning of a prefixes or suffix, give examples, write the word in a sentence and visually represent the meaning of the word. Great for use in any middle school classroom in spelling lessons. They have been created for the Year 3 Unit- Prefixes and Suffixes.
