We're looking at two suffixes this week: -ful and -less. This is a great opportunity to experiment with building new words, to build a strronger understanding of how suffixes affect meaning. -ful and-less are cool because you can use them to create opposites too, for example, 'useful' vs. 'useless'.

Good luck!
