My 3rd graders are having trouble remembering the different vocabulary terms. I made this quick "cheat sheet" that they can keep in their reading or writing folders.

Prefixes and Suffixes Cheat Sheet

I came up with the following two "cheat sheets" to help the students learn the prefixes and suffixes.
