With lots of discussion questions, this is a great worksheet for advanced-level students who want to be able to talk fluently about the current business climate.
Prefix Practice
Teaching prefixes is a great way to boost your students' vocabulary!
There are four different prefixes in this lesson: super-, anti-, mis- and pre-.
Students need to match eight words with their correct prefix, and put them in the correct sentence. It's not as easy as it looks!
To help students memorise the language, there are discussion questions which recycle the target vocabulary.
It's a great instant lesson!
