What this worksheet teaches

• Use common prefixes and suffixes such as un-, re-, -ful and -less to build new words.
• Choose the correct word among similar-sounding options such as their, there and they're.
• Use new words in a sentence of your own to show the meaning is understood.
• Recognise that some words have more than one meaning depending on the sentence.

How to use this worksheet

Keep a short running list of the words your child got wrong across several worksheets and revisit it a few days later. Vocabulary needs spaced repetition rather than volume - five words seen again next week beat twenty words seen once.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. MCQ: Choose the antonym of 'young':
2. MCQ: Choose the synonym of 'angry':

Frequently asked questions

Are prefixes and suffixes Grade 3 level?

Yes, the common ones - un-, re-, -ful, -less. They are valuable because one rule unlocks many words at once, which is why they appear repeatedly at this grade.

How often should we do vocabulary practice?

Short and frequent beats long and rare. Two or three ten-minute sessions a week, with earlier mistakes revisited, produces better retention than one long weekend session.

My child matches words correctly but cannot use them in speech. Is that real learning?

It is partial. Recognising a word comes first, using it comes later. Asking for one sentence of their own for each word is the fastest way to move from one to the other.
