This was a great resource for practicing with prefixes/suffixes. I used it as a center where the kids build their own words. Thank you!

I used this in small group reading rotations to practice prefixes and suffixes. The students loved it and it was super easy to differentiate the concepts. Thanks.

I used these with my first and fifth grader. The 5th grader was mostly independent and my first grader did well with support.
