Challenge your children's understanding of suffixes using this Year 2 Adding '-ful' and '-less' Application worksheet. This writing task comes with four given root words and the children are then asked to add both the '-ful' and '-less' suffixes to each root word and write sentences including the new words. Modelled answers are included for you to either share with your class as a good example or give you inspiration for your marking.
