Prefixes and Suffixes and Extra Credit

One of our goals for second term is to learn and be able to use and recognize the seventh grade core prefixes and suffixes.

Let's begin with a poem to help us remember which is which:

If you have a base word and you happen to find
Something in front or something behind.
A prefix begins: a suffix ends,
And that is the basic rule, my friends.


Memorize the poem for 5 extra credit points.
