·        Learn that adding the suffix -ic to a base or stem often forms an adjective
·        Build stems by combining morphemes
·        Learn that the vowel suffix -ic doesn’t trigger doubling a consonant
·        Explore the etymology of bound bases with the suffix -ic
·        Solve word sums
·        Sort bases and stems according to their spelling rule (Just add the suffix -ic or drop the final silent e vowel suffix and add the suffix -ic)
·        Reinforce learning with practical games
