Prefixes ‘anti’, ‘auto’ and ‘super’

Year 3

This lesson introduces children to three prefixes: autosuper and anti. Through a clear, interactive PowerPoint, pupils explore how each prefix changes the meaning of a root word with relatable examples like autographsuperhero and antisocial. Misconceptions are tackled head-on with discussion prompts that encourage deeper thinking. The accompanying task sheet gives children the chance to apply their knowledge by creating new words, matching them to definitions and exploring how each prefix works in context.
