Greek and Latin Roots and Affixes
Rationale
“People with a good vocabulary do not have special lives; they just have more words to express themselves.” Have you ever needed the perfect comeback but were at a loss for words? We all have wished we could go back in time to say something daring or smart at the perfect time. If you have ever wanted the right words to say in a situation, you need to increase your word power. Many words that you encounter in literature, in class, or on standardized tests (think CRCT and SAT!) have parts that can be easily identified, thus leading you to figure out the rest of the word through context and an educated guess—without having ever seen the words before! After you complete this unit, you will recognize and use decoding skills to determine the meanings of words.
