Recap a range of prefixes and suffixes with our Year 2 Consolidating Prefixes and Suffixes Teaching PowerPoint. These slides reintroduce what prefixes and suffixes are ahead of using prefixes and suffixes to change the meaning of root words. A range of varied fluency questions are covered to build pupils' confidence. Children will then apply their learning by using prefixes and suffixes within sentences.

This set of slides can be used for revision and consolidation. We also have supporting worksheet-based resources to use within the same lesson.
