B. During the Lesson
1. Presentation: Read the story. Answer the questions that follow.
It was Benny’s twelfth birthday and the family was preparing a
big celebration for him. While waiting for the guests to arrive,
Benny went to the park to try out his new bicycle. While there
he met misfortune. Another bicycle bumped him at the rear
and Benny was thrown out of his seat right into the path of a
speeding tricycle. Luckily the park administrator had taken
precautions for such incidents. An announcement was made
through the microphone and the first-aid attendants came to
take him to the first-aid station. We found him waiting for us at
the anteroom whiling away his time with the microscope.
Benny’s injuries were not serious and the birthday celebration
did not have to be postponed.
Who was celebrating his twelfth birthday?
What happened to him when he tried out his new bicycle?
How did the park administrator take precautions for such incidents?
2. Discussion: Read the italicized words taken from the paragraph.
bicycle tricycle microphone microscope
misfortune precautions anteroom
What are placed before each word?
What does each syllable mean?
What do you call these words?
Note further that these syllables come at the beginning of the base word.
These syllables are called prefixes. From the examples given, words can be
formed through the use of prefixes. You can get the meaning of the word when
you know the meaning of the prefix and the base word is familiar to you.
The most common prefixes un-, in-, dis-. im-, and ir-, are often used to mean
“opposite of” or “not”.
Examples:
impatient discomfort irresponsible unlike
illogical immature illegal disalign

C. After the Lesson
1. Generalization:
A prefix is a syllable or syllables placed at the beginning of a base word.
A base word is a word that can stand on its own. It cannot be divided into two
smaller
parts and still retain its meaning.
The meaning of a word can be figured out by putting together the meaning of its
prefix
and the base word.
