Tion Word Family Worksheet, Three Exercises
Puzzle pieces for solution, a lightbulb for invention, a question mark standing alone: this tion word family worksheet turns abstract suffixes into something a student can actually picture.
Five clipart images anchor the first section of this tion word family worksheet, each one paired with a word from the bank. A running child represents action, a train station building covers station, and colorful interlocking puzzle pieces make solution concrete and memorable.
The fill-in-the-blank section puts those same five words into real sentences, including a flashlight clue for invention and a bus stop prompt for station. A “Think!” reminder bubble in the corner notes that -tion words name actions, places, ideas, or things. A third open section asks students to generate three of their own, which is where the lesson lands.
Match pictures to words, complete sentences, then brainstorm your own in this tion word family worksheet. Instant download, ready to print.

Usage Notes
Blending pencils work well here for shading the clipart images lightly without crowding the answer lines. Fine liners in a single accent color can underline the word bank entries and help students track which words remain unused. Avoid broad-tip markers near the fill-in blanks since bleed can obscure handwriting in the narrow spaces.
Printing Tips
Standard 20 lb copy paper handles this worksheet cleanly, but bumping to 24 lb keeps the answer lines crisp and prevents ink from ghosting through if students use felt-tip pens. Scale to 100 percent to preserve the line spacing in the writing boxes.
