This resource contains an editable, 100-slide PowerPoint lesson on words ending in the suffix -tion. This resource will help pupils to master the spelling of ‘tion’ words. (English programmes of study: Endings which sound like /ʃən/, spelt –tion, ). The PowerPoint contains a variety of activities to help pupils to read and spell these words.
In the first section pupils read -tion words. They include all the words suggested in the new National Curriculum - station, action, etc. Additional words ending in -tion have been added that will be useful for pupils across the curriculum eg punctuation, fraction, addition, education, question, section, digestion and many more.
In the next section the emphasis is on the spelling of the words by ‘chunking’. The PowerPoint visually demonstrates how to do this.
Then pupils are challenged to spell words ending in -tion.
The next activity involves pupils working in pairs or groups to find as many words ending in -tion as they can in a timed exercise.
There is a section for pupils to identify the missing letters from -tion words and also an anagram challenge.
The resource could be used as a whole lesson, for a series of lessons, as a lesson starter or plenary. It is suitable for Key Stage 1 pupils and older SEN students who will benefit from the visual nature of this resource.
