The hardest sheet pulls together everything third graders have learned about prefixes and suffixes. Four Multiple Choice questions test trickier vocabulary like "dishonest," "homeless," and the correct use of "prepay" in a sentence. Five Fill in the Blank questions then ask students to define "unkind," form the verb "refill," and turn "gentle" into an adverb.
A solid mastery check before moving on to fourth-grade roots and affixes.
