Spelling - Changing 'y' to 'i'
Goals
To learn and practise the spelling rules associated with base words ending in 'y' when endings (suffixes) are added.
Lesson plan
The lesson is divided into a series of activities where students
group words according to whether they keep the final 'y' of the base word when a suffix is added, or change 'y' to 'i'. For each set of examples, students are
asked to identify and make predictions about the patterns for this area
of spelling.
