Suffixes

A synonym is a word that means the same or almost the same. For example, mad is a synonym for angry. Third graders learned about synonyms yesterday morning at morning meeting. You can ask your child to name some for you.

You can have lots of fun with synonyms in the car or at home. You might play "I'm thinking of a Word" and use synonyms for clues.

I'm thinking of a word that is a synonym for smart. Do you know what it is?
