In this objective, children will learn how to add suffix -ist to bases and stems. Over three  20-minute lessons, they will: ·       Understand how adding the suffix -ist changes the meaning of the base or stem.

·       Explore bases and stems, developing understanding of how words are formed by combining with different morphemes. ·       Build on understanding to decode complex words and break them down into their morphemes. ·       Apply three spelling rules:

Double the final consonant letter when a word ends in a CVC pattern and the stress is on the last syllable, then add the vowel suffix. Drop the final silent e vowel letter, then add the vowel suffix. Just add the suffix -y.

·       Reinforce learning with practical activities Resources Included: ·       Editable PowerPoint covering 3 lessons (20 minutes each) ·       Teacher guidance with optional activities ·       Supporting worksheets ·       A range of practical activities including: a careers fair activity, a tourist guide activity, ‘-ist or -ist not’ game ·       2 fluency activities (with answers) ·       1 reasoning activity (with answers)...
