The Broken Aqueduct Arch
The keystone over the pressroom canal is cracked. Forge the exact word parts and expand the repair spec so the arch holds.
Forgekeeper Anika Shah, printer Bodhi Nguyen, and apprentice Leo Martins stand beneath the cracked stone arch that carries water to the print foundry. To cast the replacement keystone, students must listen to Anika's inspection report, read the mason's specification sheet, build precise morphological words from prefixes, roots, and suffixes, and write an expanded repair order.
Communicative Objective
Students use prefixes, roots, and suffixes to construct precise academic words and expand short sentences to explain a structural repair.
