Activity 2

Careless?

Or carefree?

Which one are you? Of course, it's possible to be both at once!

In this activity, we're going to test your knowledge of the words that have these suffixes. Sometimes a word can have either -free or -less, but be careful because this can change the meaning, as in careless and carefree.

One hint to help you is that for places where something is not allowed, we usually use -free.
