Prefix, Suffix, and Base Words

(0)
Animated & illustrated PowerPoint introduction to prefixes and suffixes and how they change the meaning of (base) words. Most common prefixes and suffixes covered. Each prefix or suffix is presented with 10+ logical examples in an engaging style. Think-pair-share activities for each prefix or suffix. Slide Order: Review of base words quickly covered with an identify the base word activity. Explanation and examples of common prefixes: ‘re’, ‘un’, ‘mis’, ‘pre’, and ‘dis’. Each prefix then followed with a think-pair-share activity. 20+ examples of words with the prefix then shown for students to self check against. Explanation and examples of common suffixes: ‘-ful’, ‘-less’, ‘ly’, ‘er’, ‘est’ Each suffix followed with a think-pair-share activity 20+ Examples of words with the suffix. Quite a long slide show if all done at once (whole lesson perhaps). Could be used to introduce/review just prefixes or suffixes in one lesson by showing only 1 half of the presentation. Some slides could also be hidden. Other than a brief explanation and examples for each prefix or suffix, I’ve tried to keep it quite straight forward so that their isn’t too much lecturing or reading required. Recommend students use mini-whiteboards for the think-pair-shares or list on paper the examples pairs or small groups can come up with. Been designed with ESL grade 3, 4 and 5 students as the target pupils, so repetitive language used with vocabulary building as a desired outcome.
