This resource is divided into four sections: Prefixes, Suffixes, Prefixes and Suffixes, and Roots. At the start of both the Prefix and the Suffix sections, there are several worksheets that introduce students to some of the more common affixes. The rest of the sections are devoted to more practice using these affixes with a short multiple-choice quiz at the end. The Prefix and Suffix section provides opportunities for students to practice using prefixes and suffixes together.

The first two pages in the Roots section focus on just three common roots and their meanings in order to introduce the concept. The following pages provide more opportunities to explore Greek and Latin roots.
