About this resource

Description

Suffixes are word endings that change how a base word is used, and this Suffix ED and ING Worksheet helps students master two of the most common ones. When children add -ed to a base word, they show that an action already happened, and when they add -ing, they show that it is happening right now. Learning to add these endings correctly builds a strong foundation for reading, spelling, and writing clear sentences.

This printable 2nd grade suffixes worksheet gives students clear, focused practice in two parts. First, they write the -ed and -ing form of six base words in an easy-to-read chart. Then they finish six sentences by adding the correct ending to the word in parentheses, using context clues like “yesterday” or “right now” to decide. Use it as morning work, a literacy center, homework, or a quick check for understanding.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 2 activities: a base-word chart and 6 sentence-completion questions

This Suffix ED and ING Worksheet helps kids learn in three ways. It builds accuracy by having students form each ending themselves instead of just circling answers. It strengthens comprehension because the sentences require readers to notice time clues before choosing -ed or -ing. And it grows confidence, since the included answer key lets children check their own work and see their progress right away.

Teachers and parents can extend the skill in fun ways. Play a quick sorting game where kids move base words into an “-ed” or “-ing” column. Ask children to hunt for -ed and -ing words in a favorite storybook and read the sentences aloud. Or have students act out a verb, then say it two ways—“I jumped” and “I am jumping”—to hear how the endings change the meaning.
