Review of Lesson 26: Prefix +Root Word + Suffix
Look at this word and listen to me read it out loud:
renewable
Turn and tell your partner the prefix, suffix, and root
word in this word.
Give a thumbs up if you said that the prefix is re-, the
suffix is-able, and the root word is new.
Remember that many longer words are made up of a
root or root word plus a prefix and suffix. It is sometimes
helpful to break a longer word into smaller parts to
determine its pronunciation.
Look at this chart. Identify the prefix, suffix, and root or
root word in each longer word. Decode each word part
and then read the longer word.

Review of Lesson 27: Greek Word Parts
Look at these words and listen to me read them out
loud:
astronaut
asterisk
Turn and tell your partner what these two words have
in common.
Give a thumbs up if you said that they both
share the word part ast. Remember that
astr and aster are Greek word parts
meaning “star”. When you come to a
longer word, looking for familiar Greek
word parts can help you determine its
meaning.
Copy the words below, and work with your
partner to identify and circle the Greek word part
in each word. Read the words aloud to your
partner.

loud:

in common.
Give a thumbs up if you said that they both
share the word part upt. Remember that
upt is a Latin word part meaning “to break”
. When you come to a longer word, looking
for familiar Greek word parts can help you
determine its meaning.

partner to identify and circle the Latin word part
in each word. Read the words aloud to your

Review of Lesson 29: Use Decoding
Strategies
Look at this word and watch me read it:
camouflage
Remember, borrowed words came into
English from other languages and can be
tricky to decode because in other
languages, letters often stand for different
sounds than they do in English. The
pronunciation of borrowed words often
need to be confirmed in a dictionary.
With your partner look at the list of
borrowed words below. Pronounce each
word to your partner and underline the
part of the word that has a different sound
than what you might expect (since it is a
borrowed word from another language
besides English). Confirm your prediction
with the dictionary.
