Review

chunks war/quar, wor, suffix y, suffix ly

In this lesson, we learned three new chunks. A chunk is a vowel followed by one or two consonants which makes the vowel sound impure. They are the blue cards in our card deck.

Chunks

  • war- warm – /wor/
  • quar – quarter /kwor/
  • wor – word – /wer/

We also learned two new suffixes. Remember, a suffix is added to the end of a base word and changes the meaning or function of the base word.

Suffixes

Vowel suffix y – salty – /ē/ – Means full of or dear one, makes nouns. Suffix y is a vowel suffix.

Examples:  dirty, funny

Suffix ly – softly – /lē/ – Makes adverbs which are words that describe verbs.

Examples:  mostly, softly
