Unit 23: Prefixes: when letters need changing
Page 3 of 9
 |
Some prefixes have an obvious meaning, for example: |
| overcook | underpass | outlaw | upright |
However, most prefixes come from Greek, Latin or Old English and their meanings are not so clear. For example:
| pre | inter | homo | tele | dis | un |
In this activity, you will be trying to work out what the prefix for each group of words means. First, identify the common prefix and then look at the meaning options in the box. Meanings may have to be used more than once. All meanings are included.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
