Secret Suffix Search

In this worksheet, students read a descriptive paragraph and identify all words ending with common suffixes such as -ful, -less, -er, -ing, -ness, -y, or -ion. They record the found words in the box below the passage. This activity promotes close reading and strengthens students’ ability to spot morphological patterns. It helps learners understand how suffixes contribute to tone and descriptive detail in narrative writing. The exercise also builds vocabulary awareness and reinforces structural analysis skills.
