Tion, tian are letter blocks that do not come apart for sounding out.
When you see the tian letter block, it tells you that the word is describing a living being, usually coming from a region in the world.
A Dalmatian puppy is from Dalmatia, a region on the coast of the Adriatic Sea, across from the coast of Italy.
A being from the planet Mars, is a Martian. A person from Egypt is an Egyptian. Try to read:
Dalmatian Martian Egyptian Christian
The tion letter block often tells the reader that an action word is being made into a thing, a noun: Adam organized his bedroom drawers. He put socks in a sock drawer and shirts in a shirt drawer. Organization made getting dressed much faster when Adam was in a hurry.
Dalmatian Martian Egyptian Christian
The tion letter block often tells the reader that an action word is being made into a thing, a noun: Adam organized his bedroom drawers. He put socks in a sock drawer and shirts in a shirt drawer. Organization made getting dressed much faster when Adam was in a hurry.
Look at these action words (called verbs): organize, act, add, subtract, invent, create, direct, imagine.
Now, try those action words with the tion letter block added at the end:
organization addition invention direction
action subtraction creation imagination
The letter blocks tion, tian say the same shun sound as cian, cean, cion. You might like to look at the right side of this page to find those lessons.
