Identifying Prefixes

Topic: Identifying and correcting prefixes and suffixes.

Identify the Standards: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.3.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.

CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.3.3.A Identify and know the meaning of the most common prefixes and derivational suffixes.

Design a Concept Map: (In other week 2 assignment)

Identify Concept Elements to Match the Standard

Write the Objectives or Intended Outcomes

 Students will be able to identify prefixes, suffixes and root word and know their differences.

 Students will be able to identify how a prefix or suffix can change the meaning of a word.

 Students will have the ability to properly correct words with the incorrect prefix or suffix

Write Problematic Situations

This will be a guided discussion.

We will as a class identify vocabulary words: Prefixes, suffix, and root words.

Students will be given the newsletter for the 3rd grade field trip that are responsible for revising any incorrect affixes and redesigning the newsletter.

How

• How will we proceed to investigate our questions?

• How will we organize time, access to resources and reporting?

• How will we self-assess our progress (such as with a scoring rubric)?

Students think about resources available to help them find the answers to questions

Add the Metacognitive strategy

• Plan

• Monitor

• Evaluate Next we will create a list on the chalk board of what resources in the classroom we can use to reintroduce the concept of affixes and identify prefixes and suffixes to incorporate in our writing.

- Reading book

- White board and alphabet letter

- Word wall

- Classroom computers

- Class dictionary

- Watch the YouTube video from the beginning of the lesson again.

There will be a rubric to measure student affix and word decoding understanding.

Teacher monitoring by walking through the room observing the groups.

Students are also learning how to decode words to identify the root word and prefix or suffixes. Then identifying the root word and adding the correct affix. Apply

• How and where can we apply the results of our investigations—to this and other subjects/to our daily lives?

Students apply what they have learned Students will present their redesigned newsletter in groups to the class.

Afterwards we then will discuss how this can be applied not only to the newsletter but our writing in general. We can also now look when we are reading to find word that contain prefixes and suffixes.

Students can also be asked to listen to family and parents to see if we can hear then use affixes in their conversations.

Questions

• What new questions do we have now?

• How might we pursue them in our next units?

Students consider other question, or they identify ways to transfer information to similar situations Some other questions will arise about if there are more prefixes and suffixes than the one we have gone over in class.

How can we apply affixes in other subjects? Do we use affixes in our everyday
