About This Skill
On Iqleel, second-grade students will learn a common spelling rule for making adverbs by adding the suffix '-ly'. They will practice changing an adjective (a describing word) like 'quick' into an adverb like 'quickly' to describe how an action is done. This skill focuses on understanding how this simple ending can change a word's job in a sentence. Learning this common spelling pattern is an important part of vocabulary development and helps students use more descriptive words in their writing.
