Description: Prefixes Suffixes Roots: Breaking down words by prefixes, suffixes and roots gives students a strategy to decode unknown words. This reading strategy transfers beyond the single word to other unfamiliar words that include those common affixes and roots. Increase your student's reading and writing vocabulary by helping them understand the meaning of common prefixes and suffixes. As students learn the meaning of affixes, they can apply that reading strategy to decode new words, increasing their vocabulary and reading comprehension.
