This Grade 2 prefixes and suffixes worksheet asks students to sort words by affix position and meet two new affixes, dis- and -y. Learners sort unhappy, helpful, windy, and dislike into prefix or suffix groups, then complete sentences with dis- and -y words like disagree, dislike, windy, and sunny. Four true or false prompts check whether students can spot whether an affix sits at the start or end of a word.
