Students in Ms. Todd's class have been putting their creativity and vocabulary skills to work! 📚🎨Over the past several weeks, students have been learning about morphology—the study of word parts, including roots, prefixes, and suffixes. To wrap up our first nine weeks of morphology practice, students took what they've learned and turned it into creative root word posters! Students selected different roots, explored their meanings, identified related vocabulary words, and brought their learning to life through illustrations and colorful designs. We are so proud of their hard work!
