LC: Spell verbs with prefixes correctly.

Prefixes

Usually when we add a prefix to a verb, the spelling of the root word does not change. We just need to remember the spelling of the prefix.

We are going to be learning how the meaning of verbs change when we add these prefixes:

dis           de            mis         over        re

Listen carefully to how the prefixes sound, and note the spelling.

Now look at and note these spellings:

disappear             disobey             disengage

disagree      disconnect    dislike

We hear 'diss' but we spell the prefix 'dis'.

Practise spelling each of the words correctly.
