Prefixes are word parts that come before root words and can change the meaning. The prefixes discussed include anti meaning against, un meaning not or opposite, and re meaning again or back. Examples are given such as antisocial, uncomfortable, unpack, return, and reread. Students then play a game to practice prefixes and examples are provided such as unhappy, rewrite, reuse, antiwrinkle, unfriendly, and reapply. Finally, students complete an exit slip to demonstrate their understanding of the prefixes taught.
