Build Basic Concepts:
Concept 1 – Frequent spelling patterns for /s/ are s, ss, sc, ce, ci, and cy.
o 1A: Give each student two sticky notes. Ask students to come up with two words that contain the /s/ sound. Encourage them to be creative and think of words that may not contain the letter s, but still contain the sound /s/. Next, make six categories on the blackboard. Ask each student to come to the chalkboard and place their sticky notes in the correct category. Have students brainstorm words that could fit into smaller categories.
Concept 3 - A prefix is a letter or letters added to the beginning of a word. A suffix is a letter or letters added to the end of a word.
o 3A: Select a student to write certain on the chalkboard. Identify certain as a base word. Then demonstrate the addition of the prefix un- to spell uncertain. Discuss how the prefix changes the meaning of the base word. Next, demonstrate the addition of the suffix –ly to spell certainly. Use the three words in sentences to confirm their meaning.
Introduce Teaching Poster 2, page 411. Read the rhyme with students and relate it to the addition of the un- prefix and the
–ly suffix to certain. Tell students that they can use the prefixes and suffixes on the chart to make new words. Discuss each suffix rule and its word examples. Then have students complete a copy of PERSONAL POSTER 2 (Blackline Master, page 381), using their own examples.
Build Skillful Writers:
Help students to learn to spell hyphenated number words in their writing. Write twenty-six on the chalkboard. Point out the hyphen. Tell students that most of the time, numbers are written as words. Words for 21-99 are hyphenated. Write one-sixth on the chalkboard. Point out the hyphen. Tell students that fractions are hyphenated in writing.
Extension:
Introduce the game “Over Sixty Dollars”. Assign each letter of the alphabet a dollar value (e.g., A=$1, B=$2, Z=$26). Students can work independently, in small groups, or as a class to play the game—the object is to create words with the highest dollar value over sixty dollars. Challenge the students to make long words through the addition of prefixes and suffixes to earn high scores in the game.
