Form Match

Worksheet Description

Students change sixteen root words by replacing the final y with i, adding the given ending, and matching the result to the correct form. The word set includes past-tense verbs, plurals, comparisons, adverbs, and nouns. Students write the matching letter after forming each word. The activity combines word building with careful answer checking.

This worksheet helps students practice the spelling rule with a wide range of endings. Matching their answer to a finished form gives them a second chance to check whether they changed the root correctly. The task also helps them notice that some endings create actions, some name things, and others describe how or how much. This builds spelling, grammar understanding, attention to detail, and flexible word use.
