Spellings for week beginning 08/06/20

This week we will be focusing on Unit 6- adding -ation to verbs to form nouns.

 Day 1- Monday 8th June 2020
Unit 6- adding -ation to verbs to form nouns
Today we would like you to create  a list of words that end with -ation.
Once you have created the list underline -ation in each word.
-ation is an ending that can be added to lots of words. It sounds like ay and shun, doesn’t it? 

We can add -ation to some verbs to change them into nouns.
If the verb ends in a consonant we just add the suffix:
inform + ation          information 
Here is an example sentence I made up using these words. Ahem!
You must inform the police at once! Give them all the information you have.
 
But if the verb ends in e we must drop the e before adding -ation:
adore + ation = adoration   
Here they are in a sentence:
I adore my new puppy, and he looks at me with adoration, too.
 
Weird Word Warning! There are some words that contain -ation as part of the root word and not as a suffix.
For example:
station
nation
