Awesome for Word Study

I bought this to help me with word study in my classroom. I teach 6th grade reading and English to students who are struggling in those areas. Part of our IIP at school is to teach about 10 different prefixes per grade level. I actually needed to purchase this green book and the red prefix book, to get all the prefixes I needed. Anyways, the purchase has been well worth it. It has about 5 actvities/worksheets per prefix, plus a quiz. Usually when I buy books like this I end up modifying everything, but not this time. I really like what is in here. Well worth the money, saves me time from creating the material myself and the kids have learned so much! They are applying what was learned in previous lessons to new lessons. These series of books were actually recommended to me by another teacher in my district. She loves them too.

Fabulous alternative for your greatest spellers

I am using this for those students in my class who breeze through the Language Arts spelling words every week. I give a pretest on Monday. If a student misses fewer than five out of twenty of the spelling words, they study these vocabulary words instead. The book is organized wonderfully well, so that you can assign one prefix or suffix each week. The author gives you a list of ten words with the pre- or suffix (for visual learners), a page with the words and meanings mixed up so they have to cut it apart and match them up again (for your tactile learners) and then a multiple choice test where the students must determine which word fits into the sentence (very difficult - student needs to apply their knowledge and comprehension of the word to determine in which sentence the word would work.) I highly recommend this book for grades 4 through 6 - it is a challenge for my highest students! Mainstream students in higher grades (7 -8) would still find it challenging.

Great for Special Ed.

This presents the prefixes and suffixes into small chunks so as to not overwhelm the students. Gives a great multiple choice practice, as well as many examples.
