In this Grade 2 sheet, suffix knowledge is tested in meaningful contexts. Four multiple-choice items ask which word with -ful, -less, -er, -est, or -ly fits the sentence. Five fill-in-the-blank sentences keep pushing Grade 2 students to pick between close choices like helpful and helpless or taller and tallest. The focus is on using meaning clues, not guessing, to lock in the best answer.
