Abbreviations and affixes — use the words

Teacher edition · Grade 7 · Lesson 11 · blocked
The part narrows the meaning. It does not decide it.

1. MATCH

Draw a line from each academic word to the everyday word that means about the same.
inter- — between
trans- — across
counter- — against
multi- — many
anti- — opposed to
post- — after
semi- — half
-ology — the study of
-ity — the quality of
e.g. — for example
MATCH — watch forRecognition only. A child can do this by elimination without meaning anything by the word, which is why it is rung one and not the whole sheet.

2. CHOOSE

Fill each gap with the right word. Word bank: counter-, e.g., inter-, multi-, post-, trans-.
Word bank: counter-, e.g., inter-, multi-, post-, trans-.
inter-ational trade grew.
trans-ort moves goods across land.
He made a counter-argument.
A multi-ultural city.
The post-war period.
Some plants, e.g. cactus, need little water.
CHOOSE — watch forPRACTICE MODE: blocked. All gaps come from today's set.

3. FRAME

Finish each sentence.
Expect the FULL sentence on the line, not just the missing word. A one-word answer is incomplete — ask for it again.
Because ___, the inter- ___.
Because rain, the inter- rain.one possible answer — accept any full sentence that uses the word properly
We use inter- when ___.
We use inter- when rain.one possible answer — accept any full sentence that uses the word properly
FRAME — watch forThe release to independence. Today's scaffold is “partial”, and it shrinks each time this unit returns until there is no frame at all — the child should be able to feel it coming off.

4. PRODUCE

Write your own sentences using the academic words. Target: 4 paragraphs. A + means more than one sentence in that slot. You may use the frame for two of your three. Try the third without it.

PRODUCE — watch forThe printed target is the LOTF move: the child can see what a full answer looks like instead of guessing how much is enough. The Today's frame ration is 2 — say it aloud, and say BOTH halves: the frame is there if they need it, and it is better writing without it.
