inflectional endings and common long vowels word studies

This learning resource focuses on teaching how to correctly add inflectional endings such as -s, -ed, and -ing to base words. It begins with examples that illustrate the transformations of base words, demonstrating how to modify them by adding specific endings. The resource outlines essential spelling rules, including guidelines for words that end in 'e', and CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) structures. It provides guided practice by prompting learners to add endings to a variety of base words, reinforcing the rules discussed. Additionally, it includes a section on common long vowel patterns to assist with spelling accuracy, and a word sort activity to categorize words according to their vowel patterns. This resource aims to ensure that learners are capable of applying these rules independently to enhance their writing skills.
