Word Wizardry Workshop

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a linguistic exercise designed to guide students through the process of word formation using the suffix “-ly.” It provides a list of base words, and students are instructed to add “-ly” to create new words. Each newly formed word must then be written down, and its part of speech identified and noted in the space provided. The worksheet serves as a practical way for students to understand how suffixes can change the form and function of a word.

The objective of this worksheet is to teach students the skill of creating adverbs and adjectives by adding the suffix “-ly” to base words. By doing so, students learn to recognize how suffixes can alter the meaning of a word and its grammatical category. The exercise also helps students to understand the role of adverbs and adjectives in a sentence and to enrich their vocabulary. Through this hands-on activity, they gain a deeper appreciation for the nuances of English grammar and the flexibility of word construction.
