How do roots work?
• Prefixes, bases, and suffixes are all roots.
• When joined together, these roots create new words.
![Page 4: Prefixes, Bases and Suffixes](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081507/5681610e550346895dd066d3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Prefixes come at the beginning.
Bases come in the middle.
Suffixes come at the end.

Prefixes give important details about the word.
Bases describe the main idea. A base is the main meaning of the word.
Suffixes also give important details.

A prefix is a word part added to the
beginning of a root word.

Can you figure out how each of these prefixes gives a new meaning to the base “cycle”?
• unicycle• bicycle• tricycle• motorcycle• recycle
Cycle= circle or wheel
![Page 8: Prefixes, Bases and Suffixes](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081507/5681610e550346895dd066d3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
A prefix changes the meaning of a
word. Cycle means wheel, but recycle means cycling back or again.

Remember-A suffix is a word part added to the

Remember-A suffix gives a detail about the
word.

How can I use this word’s roots to figure out what the word means?
