Description

Suffix Squash is an engaging and hands-on game that will challenge your students to correctly apply suffixes to base words as they squash their way to victory!

 

Suitable for individuals and small groups, Suffix Squash is a fun game that can be adapted to suit your classroom needs. While playing students will explore the -ed, -ing and -er suffixes, considering if they can be correctly applied to a selected base word.

 

The game boards and cards are colourful, using bold clipart to capture the attention of its target audience. The game boards come in both high and low-colour versions, so there will be one to suit your printing needs. It is recommended to print both the game boards and cards on thick card to ensure longevity because once this resource is prepared the first time (including cutting the cards) it can easily be used time and time again.

 

Suffix Squash could be used to explore suffixes, as a vehicle for practising spelling, during Literacy Rotations or as an early finisher task. Versatile in its application, but simple by design, it is sure to become a game on high rotation in your classroom. Younger students may need adult assistance to read the base words, or strategically grouping students to ensure a strong reader is in each group may help with this.

 

It’s time to play Suffix Squash!

 

Available in our basic fun font and all Australian state fonts.
