Use Prefixes to Analyze the Meaning of Words

CCSS ELA: L.5.4.B

L.5.4.B Use common, grade-appropriate Greek and Latin affixes and roots as clues to the meaning of a word (e.g., photograph, photosynthesis).

TEKS ELA: 5(3)(C)

5(3)(C) Identify the meaning of and use words with affixes such as trans-, super-, -ive, and -logy and roots such as geo and photo.

This reading vocabulary lesson focuses on using prefixes to analyze the meaning of words. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read a sentence and identify the word with the prefix. Then, they divide the word between base and prefix and then determine the meaning of the prefix from a table. Finally, they combine the meanings of the prefix and the base to determine the meaning of the whole word. In addition to the lesson, there are fifteen pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
