This resource focuses on enhancing students' understanding of compound words and prefixes. It introduces the concept of compound words, explaining how they are formed by combining two smaller words to create a new meaning, with examples provided for clarity. Students are encouraged to practice spelling a list of common compound words through various activities such as creating definitions, unscrambling words, and filling in sentences. Additionally, the second week shifts focus to prefixes, teaching students how these are added to the beginning of words to alter their meanings. Through a mix of writing tasks, vocabulary definitions, and creative story-building activities, the program aims to build spelling proficiency and deepen comprehension of word formation.
