Greek & Latin Roots - Building English Vocabulary + Prefixes

Adding a prefix to a root can change the meaning of the word significantly or just slightly. Taking a look at how these prefixes interact with various roots will help learners build vocabulary. Each class will begin with a prefix introduction. We will brainstorm some words we already know using the prefix of the day. Next, we will use Kahoot to to look at some words and definitions using the focus prefix. Finally, we will play a review game on gimkit to continue practicing the words.
