Spelling Unit 14 - Adding the suffix -ion (2)
Welcome back to the Spelling Zone. Today we are changing more verbs into nouns by adding the suffix -i-o-n un.

If the verb ends in d we must swap the d for s before adding -ion to make the ending -sion.
extend + sion = extension   

If the verb ends in se we must drop the e before adding -ion to make the ending -sion:
tense + ion = tension

Welcome, Earthlings! You are about to enter the Spelling Zone.
Our Star Speller for today is…Gamma!
Greetings, Earthlings. I like trying to think of antonyms for words.
 Antonyms are words that mean the opposite of another word.
These are some of my favourites:
enormous    minuscule
excellent     dreadful
delicious    revolting 
Sometimes I just add a prefix that means ‘not’ or ‘opposite’ to a root word like this:
clear   unclear
like   dislike
complete  incomplete
possible   impossible

If a root word begins with the letter l, we change the prefix in-, in, to il-, il.
