Suffix Eraser Whiteboard Game

This is an easy no-prep whiteboard game that we did the other day. We simply used some words from the UFLI lesson 107 suffix spelling changes roll and read. They had to remember to erase the double consonants and the suffix.

Students are challenged to find the hidden root words.

Added suffixes seem to come very naturally when we are speaking, but it grows more challenging when we need to spell or read these longer words.

Students are often intimidated by the length of a word. They often say “I don’t know” or “I can’t.” too quickly. Plural words and past tense words may be some of the first words they will encounter. I have made fun games for both of those skills.

This is an easy no-prep whiteboard game that we did the other day. I simply used some words from the UFLI lesson 107 suffix spelling changes. I wrote the words on the board and then the four students took turns trying to find the main root word. All the words that I chose had the double consonant pattern.

I used simple words like bag, pop, slip, win, and more…

The girls enjoyed it so much that we had to adapt the game and play it again the next day.

There are a lot of spelling skills that you can teach with just the suffix -ed.

  • 1:1 Doubling
  • Drop the Y and add i
  • Drop the silent /e/ on long vowel words

You can also use the game cards for sound sorting activities or making sentences for past and present.
