Vocab Review: Decoding

  • On your WB, combine prefixes and roots to make 3 fake words
    • For example, if you had the prefix “re-” (again) and the root “claudere” (to shut), you could make the word “reclude,” which would mean “to shut again”
      • Be careful that you don’t accidentally make real words (like “include”)
  • DON’T LET OTHERS SEE YOUR BOARD!
  • Quiz each other and keep score
