Word Parts Weekly - Week 20
"By studying the most common prefixes and suffixes, students will master the skills needed to become more efficient readers. Not only does an understanding of prefixes and suffixes improve reading skills, but it also boosts comprehension." - EduNova
Word Parts Weekly
“Ninety-seven percent of the words that students will encounter as they read will come from the 30 most commonly used prefixes, 30 most commonly used root words, and the 30 most commonly used suffixes. A strategic focus on providing students, grades kindergarten to grade 12, to curriculum-driven opportunities to learn Latin and Greek word parts will invariably build students’ vocabulary and ability to create meaning while they read.” - Dr. Donyall Dickey
While many lists of word parts (prefixes, suffixes, and root words) exist, I am using the Word Parts List curated by Dr. Donyall Dickey in his book, "The Integrated Approach to Student Achievement," for this series.
