A creative resource designed to help students understand how words are formed and to practise expanding vocabulary, using prefixes and suffixes. Students make their own word generator with a list of prefixes and suffixes that can be used with different root words.

The Word document contains teaching notes and additional teaching ideas, while the accompanying PowerPoint has the necessary templates.

The resource has been written for us by speech and language experts, Victoria Honeybourne and Emela Milne. Find out more about this approach in their CPD article.

I teach prefixes (and suffixes) whilst reading Boy by Roald Dahl. The prefixes/suffixes suggested by the word 'autobiography' kick starts the focus and provides spelling starter work for most of the term. I have not used this resource yet but it will help to vary my usual approach and will be particularly useful in terms of students actually remembering what each prefix means once the term is over.
