  2. Morphemic analysis is a strategy used to determine or infer the meanings of words by examining their meaningful parts (prefixes, suffixes, roots, etc). definition

  3. root word A root word is the base of a word after all affixes are removed. ex. impossible

  4. affixes An affix is any prefix and suffix added to a root word. ex. impossible

  5. prefix A prefix is added to the beginning of a base or root word to change its meaning. ex. impossible

  6. suffix A suffix is added to the end of a base word to change its meaning or part of speech. ex. impossible a. derivational-changes a word’s part of speech or funtion (-able, -ful, -ment) b. inflectional-creates different forms of the same word; changes the number or tense of a word; occur frequently (-s, -ed, -er)

  7. example 1 im - not possible - able to be done ible - is, can be impossible- is not able to be done

  8. example 2 in – not, without dependent – to rely on another ly – characterized by independently- characterized by not relying on another

  9. model

  10. directions • Read the passage. • Circle words that can be morphemically analyzed (words that contain a combination of affixes and root words). • Use handouts to assist in completing the graphic organizer.

  11. guided practice passage Revere and Dawes decided to continue on to Concord, Massachusetts where weapons and supplies were secretly hidden. There, they were joined by a third rider, Dr. Samuel Prescott. Soon after, all three were unjustly arrested by a British patrol. Prescott escaped almost immediately, and Dawes soon after. Revere was held a longer amount of time but later released. Left without a horse, but capable of walking, Revere returned to Lexington in time to witness part of the battle on the Lexington Green.
