WordBits Unit 4 (Autumn) - Free Sample: Year 4 Morphology Extended Prefixes

Try before you commit to the full term. This free sample covers Weeks 1 and 2 of WordBits Unit 4, our Year 4 Autumn morphology unit, teaching the anti- prefix with the same presenter notes and retrieval structure as the full 10-week unit.

Aligned to the National Curriculum spelling and vocabulary objectives for Years 3 and 4, and to the explicit morphology teaching recommended in the DfE’s July 2025 Writing Framework. Morphology teaching gives pupils a way to read unfamiliar words by breaking them into recognisable parts, which matters well beyond English lessons.

What’s included:

• 9-slide presentation (PDF and PowerPoint/PPTX): cover slide plus teaching slides for Weeks 1-2
• Full presenter notes - linguistic background, common misconceptions, and ready-to-use pupil-facing language - built into the slides
• A Quick Start Guide to get you teaching straight away
• A full Programme Map showing how all 12 units sequence across Y3-Y6
• Not editable - locked, polished slides, so nothing shifts or breaks on any device

Built for whole-class teaching, same as the full unit. Adapting for SEND stays with you, as the person who knows your class.

Want the complete term? The full Unit 4 covers five prefixes across ten teaching weeks: anti-, auto-, super-, inter-, and the in-/il-/im-/ir- family. Find it here
