Feedback from teachers:
- These are useful tools for students to break apart unfamiliar words and deepen their understanding of scientific terms.
- I refer to this board all the time! The kids love figuring out the meaning of words!
- I had a black and white set that I had on the wall at one time. These are so much nicer and more colorful that I can't wait to print them out and hang them up.
- This is a great resource. It helps students to gain knowledge of the meaning of the root word to better understand the whole word.
- My students relied on this resource all year long. I posted it on a section of our wall where I added a word wall for each unit. Having these prefixes and suffixes aided the students in pulling apart new vocabulary. This was especially useful for my ELL learners as understanding new vocabulary is so important to allow them to work with the content. The cute images add a lot to the meaning as well.
