What are Word Endings?

Word endings are the last few letters we add to a word to change its meaning or how it sounds. Learning about word endings helps us read and write better! Today, we’ll practice listening to the sounds and choosing the right ending.

Get ready to listen carefully!

Keep Practicing!

Remember to listen carefully to the sounds at the end of the word. Word endings can change the meaning, so it’s important to get them right!

Ask your teacher or parents to help you practice more words. The more you practice, the better you’ll become at completing words!
