English Resource Description
This worksheet is designed to help students learn and practice common word endings in English. The first task requires students to complete a list of 20 words by adding either 'our' or 'ure' to the given stems. For example, "Col______" should be completed as "Colour" and "Nat______" as "Nature." This exercise helps to reinforce the spelling patterns and recognition of these endings, which often cause confusion due to their similar pronunciation.
In the second task, students are asked to use the words they have completed from Task One to fill in definitions. This activity not only tests their ability to spell words correctly but also ensures they understand the meanings of the words. For instance, they would need to match "Nature" with the definition "the physical world, including plants, animals and the landscape" and "Future" with "at a later time." Task Three extends the focus on word endings by having students find additional words that end in 'ar', 'er', 'or', 're', and 'ur', such as "peculiar," "prisoner," and "doctor," and place them correctly in a table. This comprehensive approach assists in expanding vocabulary and enhancing spelling proficiency in a structured manner.
