What is “Roots & affixes”?

Roots & affixes is a 5th grade reading skill in the Theme Theater region of the TernQuest map — idioms, theme & viewpoint. It is aligned to California Common Core standard L.5.4b. Children work through 26 grade-tagged questions at the apply level (applying the idea), and Pip the tern offers a hint — never the answer — when they get stuck.

How does it unlock?

Skills on the map unlock in order: finishing the skill before this one with a mastery score of 60 or more opens roots & affixes. A grown-up can also assign it directly from the dashboard, and teachers can assign it to a whole class with a join code.
