About this activity

A projector forge for the whole class: crack unfamiliar words into prefixes, roots and suffixes to work out what they mean, and forge words from parts to fit a given meaning.

What students learn

  • B2.1: use Latin and Greek roots, prefixes and suffixes to work out the meaning of unfamiliar words
  • Choose word parts to build a word that fits a given meaning
  • Notice that one part can carry more than one meaning (in- = not or into; re- = again or back)
