Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)
- Guide learners to understand that the core of a word is its root and that other words can be got by additions to a root word. - Guide learners to form more words using prefixes. e. g. a prefix may create new words. e.g. tell - retell over - moreover Note: Prefixes may create antonyms (opposites). e.g. friendly - unfriendly satisfied - dissatisfied - In groups, learners identify several prefixes and use them in sentences. PREFIX(before) ROOT(core) NEW WORD Mis Use misuse En Joy enjoy Anti Clockwise anticlockwise De Compose decompose Poly Clinic polyclinic Note: Prefixes have meanings of their own e.g. Ante-before, bi-two, ex-out of, previous, from etc.
