Level 22 of 28
Prefix Words List (un-, re-, pre-, dis-)
A prefix is a chunk added to the front of a word that changes its meaning: unhappy is not happy, redo means do again. Recognising prefixes unlocks a huge number of longer words at once.

Teaching tip
Cover the prefix and read the base word first. Children who meet unhappy as un + happy never have to decode it letter by letter.
