However, it would be helpful to increase English vocabularies effectively if they recognize the relationship between word and suffix. Learning about suffixes early has potential to improve reading comprehension at all levels. This online resource can motivate student to understand what each suffix means through the game. The teacher can use this word matching game in order for student to enjoy learning about suffix as a review at the end of the lesson or at the beginning of the lesson.
