Christmas WS's!
We’ve added new vocabulary worksheets to our grade 2 and grade 3 sections focusing on affixes (prefixes and suffixes), non-literal meanings of words (idioms and similes) and shades of meanings of similar words.
Grade 2 vocabulary pages
The new grade 2 vocabulary pages focus on prefixes:
Prefixes
Students work on deciphering prefixes and root words.
Identify prefixes
Students are given two options to choose the correct prefix.
Suffixes
Students have to underline the suffix and circle the root word.
Identify suffixes
These worksheets provide two suffix options to choose from to complete each sentence.
Grade 3 vocabulary pages
Dissect the words
With these worksheets students learn to define prefixes, suffixes and root words, as well as the new words created.
Define the words
Building on the previous set of worksheets, students spend time on the definitions of prefix and suffix words.
Next, we’ve added three sets of worksheets on non-literal meanings of words: idioms and similes.
Idioms
This is a set of matching worksheets, where students have to draw a line from the idiom to its figurative meaning.
Similes
Students are asked to circle the simile in each sentence.
Simile sentences
These worksheets are missing the last word in the simile phrase. Students have to select the correct word from a word bank to complete each sentence.
Shades of meaning
Finally, we’ve added another set of worksheets to our synonyms and antonyms category. This set focuses on the shades of meanings of similar words, asking students to identify and categorize words by their shades of meaning – either from strong to weak, or weak to strong.
