Free PDF + editable BoboCreate template

Free Lesson: Suffixes and Spelling Changes

One complete lesson for learners who read hope and run but trip on hoping and running: find the suffix, find the base word, check the spelling change.

Both downloads are the free edition. The .bobo file opens in BoboCreate Desktop.

The editable file imports in BoboCreate Free 0.3.19 or later. It uses one of Free's three design places, and its own artwork does not count toward your three uploaded images. Older versions of the app need BoboCreate activated to import it, so update BoboCreate first.

The cover: the title Reading Long Words, Suffix & Base-Word Explorer, with cheerful split into chunks
Lesson 1 Learn page: a warm-up, the routine and the model word hoping
Lesson 1 practice: a spelling-change sort and a base + suffix task
