Identify Base Words and Suffixes to Read Multisyllabic Words #1

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Identify Base Words and Suffixes to Read Multisyllabic Words #1 lesson plan also includes:

Show your scholars how adding an affix changes the entire meaning of a word; they focus on the suffix -able. You'll find a complete script here, but if you don't want to read this verbatim, use it simply as an outline. Learners watch you model word segmenting before trying it on their own. Taking a bigger word and breaking it into a base word and suffix helps with word meaning. By showing pupils what this suffix means and pairing it with a familiar word, they can define larger words. Create a semantic map around this suffix to fill in as you find more words.
