This week in SPAG we will continue our learning with adding the suffix ness to words, changing adjectives into nouns.

Most of the time adding-ness is simple!

kind+ness=kindness

sad+ness=sadness

Can you add -ness to these words?

quiet      thoughtful    bold    rude     

 

But sometimes adding -ness can be tricker!

happy-----happi+ness=happiness

crazy-----crazi+ness=craziness

When the adjectives ends in a 'y', we usually change the 'y' to an 'i' and then add -ness. 

Can you add -ness to these words?

happy    lonely    shiny    ready
