Week 1/Greek-Latin Roots

Week 1: Greek/Latin Roots

English words are made up of different parts.

These parts are called Prefixes, Roots, and Suffixes

Week 1: Greek/Latin Roots

1. Prefix- before the root

2. Root- middle/base of the word

3. Suffix- end of the root

The following words will have pre-fixes, roots, and suffixes.

Read the word and write at least TWO other words in the quizziz section for each part of the word. Each additional word beyond 2 = 1 stamp

Yes, it actually needs to be a real word! :D ​
