HOW IT WORKS All groups are supposed to think of new words which can be formed from the stem word on the screen Keep in mind that we form words by adding affixes (prefixes or suffixes) to the stem words After figuring out the different forms of the word, come up with a sentence for each one of them The group with the most correct sentences wins Spelling will also be assessed. If the word was spelled wrong, you can score no points.
