About this worksheet
The Theatre Trip is a gap-fill story for Year 3 spelling, covering the endings -sion, -tion, -ssion and -cian over three pages. Pupils fill twelve gaps in a story called The Theatre Trip, using each word from the bank once, from mission and permission to optician. Two follow-up questions ask for the root word of magician and a new sentence with a -tion word. The answer key gives the twelve gaps in order and explains why magic takes -cian. It covers the England National Curriculum objective on prefixes and suffixes.
