Extensions and AdaptationsSort words by roots or add roots to play game (Activity Master AP.020.AM3a - AP.020.AM3c).Make other word cards to play game (Activity Master AP.020.AM4).Use base words, roots, and affixes to make words (Activity Masters AP.020.SS1 and AP.020.SS2).Write root on tree trunk and related words on branches (Activity Master AP.020.SS3).
ObjectiveThe student will identify roots in multisyllabic words.
MaterialsWord cards (Activity Master AP.020.AM1a - AP.020.AM1l)Change root cards (Activity Master AP.020.AM2a - AP.020.AM2b)
ActivityStudents identify words that share the same root by playing a card game.1. Mix word cards and “change root” cards together and place face down in a stack.2. Each students selects five cards from the stack.3. Taking turns, student one places a card face up on the table (e.g., respect). This forms a
discard pile.4. Student two reads the word aloud, identifies the root (i.e., respect, the root is “spec”), and places another card with the same root face up on top of the card placed by student one (e.g., spectacular).5. If student two does not have a word with the same root, selects cards from the stack until
a word with the same root is selected. Places card on the pile. Or, may use a “change root” card to change root. Places “change root” card plus a word card with selected root on top of the pile. Note: Mix cards in discard pile and turn over when cards in stack are all used.
6. Continue to place cards until one student is out of cards.7. Peer evaluation
