Pages 1 to 3 are prefixes and pages 4 to 6 suffixes: add the part and write what the word means, circle the meaning of a word, then cut out words and glue each under its part.
Write dis- and agree on the board and ask what disagree means. Then try dis- with other words and talk about which make real words.
Hunt for words with prefixes and suffixes on cereal boxes and signs: refill, careful, unlock. Ask your child what each part means.
Word parts that change a word's meaning: the prefixes un-, re-, dis-, mis- and over- and the suffixes -ful, -less, -ly, -er, -able and -ness. Students build new words, spell them, work out what they mean and sort them by their parts.
