Notes to the teacher: An understanding of common prefixes and suffixes can increase a student’s comprehension more quickly than learning individual words in isolation. This series of books is organized around groups of prefixes or suffixes that deal with common themes. Book 4 focuses on suffixes that help describe something. In Unit 1, connective tissue is tissue that connects. In Unit 2, a clayish material is mate-rial that resembles clay. In Unit 3, an allergic reaction is a reaction caused by an allergy. In Unit 4, a hexagonal shape is a shape that looks like a hexagon. In Unit 5, someone who drives safely drives in a safe way. Suffixes 1-4 create adjectives that describe nouns or pronouns. Suffix 5 creates an adverb that usually describes a verb, although it can occasionally describe an adjective or another adverb. At the outset, it may be helpful to give a basic presentation of the 8 parts of speech and how they function in English sentences. Often a prefix or suffix will be added to a word that is one part of speech in order to change it into another part of speech (hero-noun; heroic - adjective; heroically - adverb / child - noun; childish - adjective; childishly - adverb). Eventually the students will need to understand this concept well enough to use the various forms of a word correctly in sentences. [Mary decides (verb) easily. - Mary is decisive. (adj) / The baby looks like an angel. (noun) - The baby is angelic. (adj) ] Each unit follows a similar format: 1. The suffix is introduced. An effective way to do this would be to think of words that students may already know and lead them to discover the pattern and meaning. (What is a historical novel? What is a personal account? What is a global problem? What do these words have in common? What does the ‘-al’ indicate?) An alternate introductory activity is included where students match pairs or groups of related words. 2. The first page of the actual unit (after the Alternate Introductory Activity) can be filled out together in class. A teacher can elicit informal definitions of the words, or provide them for the students. It might be helpful to write them on the board or an overhead to insure that students are writing down accurate information (global – pertaining to the globe). If desired, students can also include both word parts (globe - e + al = global). 3. The second page with a list of common words that contain the suffix can be discussed with the class. Students can share words that they’ve heard or teachers can ask questions. (What is an emotional person like? What is a musical performance? What is a brutal murder?) Once students see how common the suffix is, they are more apt to recognize the value of learning it. Once they have understood the pattern, they will begin to notice words containing the suffix in conversation and/or print with a deeper understanding of how the English language functions. The teacher should point out any unusual information, such as spelling variations (changing the ‘e’ in face to ‘i’ for facial; changing the ‘y’ in ceremony to ‘i’ for ceremonial; dropping the ’y’ in navy for naval; adding ’at’ to talk for talkative). 4. The practices are designed to give students a structured opportunity to change a word to a new word with the suffix under consideration. There are 4 practice sets of 3 pages with increasing levels of difficulty. The first page of each practice set gives Cloze Sentences with context clues to guide the selection (from a word bank) of the appropriate root word that needs to be combined with the suffix and inserted. In the last two pages, the students are asked to restate a sentence giving the same information in such a way that they can use the new suffix with one of the words in the original sentence. Any answer is acceptable that meets these guidelines. The words to be changed are

underlined in Part A of each practice, but in Part B, the students are asked to determine on their own which words to change. All of the words to be changed are included on the list found on the second page of the unit, so students will always be able to refer to the list to see which words can be combined with the suffix. 5. The units contain 3 games that can be used to reinforce the use of the suffix. Dominos The Domino Page should be laminated and then cut ONCE down the center white line, and then across EVERY horizontal line, forming small rectangles that contain a word ending and a word beginning. This game works well with 2-3 individuals or teams. A teacher could choose to make enough copies of the game for each pair of students. One domino is placed face up and then students take turns adding strips at either end to make words. The teacher can also require that the words be used in sentences. If small groups are playing without supervision, the teacher can ask the pairs of students to record their words or sentences on a paper to be turned in. Students can decide in advance what shape they’d like to make with the dominos (circle, oval, rectangle, house, car). If students have matched the dominos correctly, they will form an enclosed shape using all of the segments. At the end of the book there is a domino game that combines suffixes from all of the units. 4 in a Row Students attempt to claim 4 adjacent squares in any direction (horizontal, vertical, diagonal). Other students attempt to block them. This game works well for 2-4 students or teams. Students/teams take turns trying to claim a square by adding a suffix to the word in the square. They can be asked to spell the word and/or use it in a sentence as well. They can then place a marker or their initials on the square and no one else can claim the square. Each person/team gets a turn to claim one square on the grid. Play continues as students attempt to connect 4 squares in a straight line, or block opponents until some student/team succeeds in forming a straight line with 4 adjacent squares. The page can be laminated for reuse with a dry-erase pen. Colored buttons or paper markers can be used on a page, or the page could be turned into a transparency for an overhead projector. Teams could easily use this format. At the end of the book there is a 4 in a Row game that combines suffixes from all of the units. Suffix Strut Students draw cards with words to which suffixes can be added. Correct answers allow them to move along a path containing pitfalls which need to be avoided. Cards from all units can be com-bined for review. 6. Each unit has a quiz. 7. Answer Keys are provided for the Student Practice Exercises. These are not the only possible correct responses, but they are usually the most obvious. Any sentence is to be accepted that correctly uses the underlined word in the answer key sentence while conveying the meaning in the original sentence. 8. At the end of the book, there are combined review and assessment pages which deal with all of the units in the book. The Suffix Strut game can be used with shuffled cards from all of the units. The unit numbers can be removed from the cards if a higher level of difficulty is desired where students will have to decide unaided which suffix to use with the word. In that case, teachers will need to make additional copies of the card pages, white-out the numbers, and recopy before laminating the new cards.

Suffix Strut Board Game
On the following page you will find the playing board for the Suffix Strut Board Game. The playing cards will be included with each unit. Copy (and laminate if desired) the game board and cards. Cut out each individual card. The cards will be shuffled and stacked face down in the center of the board as indicated. After completing Unit 1, teachers can either use just the cards for a particular unit, or combine the unit cards with all previous cards. The unit number is included on the card for ease of sorting after cards have been combined. If teachers don’t want the number showing on the card (although it will help students decide which suffix to use rather than force them to remember) they can make an extra copy of the cards, white out the numbers and then recopy before laminating and cutting.
Directions: Players race around the track by making words and/or sentences containing new words made from words on cards and a suffix. 1. Players roll a die. Even numbers move a player forward 2 spaces;
odd numbers move a player 1 space. If a player lands on a ‘Lose a Turn’ square, that turn ends (before drawing a card). Players that land on any other squares draw cards from the pile. They make new words with suffixes and spell the new words and/or use them in sentences. [(digest) ‘d-i-g-e-s-t-i-v-e The stomach is a digestive organ.’]
2. A player can move one space for a correct spelling, and another
space for a correct sentence. 3. The first player to reach the finish line wins.
