Description
Use rap music to keep your students engaged with these root words, prefixes, and suffixes worksheets for 5th and 6th grade based on our rap song about Phillis Wheatley, a Black female author.
Students will listen to the song then identify root words and affixes using words from the song's lyrics as a reading passage.
The song for this activity explores Wheatley's challenges during the American Revolution and the communication between her and General Washington during the war. It also uses the exact letter Wheatley wrote to Washington and his corresponding letter to her, so it contains rich, content vocabulary for identifying root words and affixes with the worksheets.
