As teachers, we understand the importance of building strong literacy skills in students. One of the fundamental building blocks of literacy is the ability to decode multisyllable words by recognizing and understanding prefixes, suffixes, and base words. That’s why we’re excited to introduce you to our new card game, “Word Builders: Prefixes, Suffixes, and Base Words Edition.”

Looking for a fun and engaging activity to help your students take their word-building skills to the next level? Look no further than Word Builders! Our game uses brick word cards to help students construct complex multisyllable words containing prefixes, suffixes, and base words. 

By playing our game, students will improve their ability to recognize and decode complex words, making reading and writing easier and more accurate.

The game includes 108 plastic brick word cards, each with a prefix, suffix, or base word. Players take turns drawing a card of each color and using it to build a word tower that creates a word using all three parts. The first player to correctly make 18 words wins the Game!
