Mastering Roots, Prefixes, and Suffixes
Words consist of three parts: prefix, suffix, a root
Prefix - added before roots
Roots - main part of the word ; also known as base
Suffix - added after roots
Variants - formed from words by the use of prefix, suffix, and compounds.
Biography - A form of nonfiction in which the writer tells the story of another person
Context clues
- Hints given by the author that helps define a difficult word
Restatement/ synonym - synonyms are words that have the same meaning. The difficult word
may be repeated in a simple way using synonyms
Contrast/ antonyms - antonyms are words that have the same meaning. Antonyms are often
signaled by the words unlike, while, whereas, or in contrast
Definition - The meaning of the word may be given directly in the text. The definition is often
found before or after the difficult word
Propaganda
- A common form of argumentation. Propaganda presents only one side of a preposition
and is a sustained, organized attempt to make others accept a decision and act in accordance with
that decision. Business establishments make use of extensive propaganda in the form of
advertisements. Propaganda may be good or bad depending upon its aims. Propaganda is good if
it is based on truthful evidence, as in various drives for worthy civic or religious causes or if it
aims to promote drives for safe driving or cleanliness.

persuasion and propaganda in a mixture of sound and spurious arguments
Types of Reasoning
Deductive reasoning - proceeds from a general statement to its particular applications. Perhaps
the most powerful type of deductive reasoning is the syllogism.
Inductive reasoning - proceeds from particular instances to a general conclusion. The danger in
inductive reasoning lies in the temptation to make a generalization that is too hasty. We often
generalize on the basis of insufficient particulars

currents can be warm or cold
○ Ocean currents that flow away from the equator carry warm water
○ Ocean currents that flow away from the poles carry cold water
○ Ocean currents that bring along warm water inland make the climate warm
○ Ocean currents that bring along cold water inland make the climate cold

Geology and the Earth's Treasure
Geology - the science that deals with the earth's physical structure and substance, its history, and
the processes that act on it.
The structure of the earth is divided into four major components: the crust, the mantle, the outer
core, and the inner core. Each layer has a unique chemical composition, physical state, and can
impact life on Earth's surface.
Types of convergent
Star - a massive glowing ball made gas and dust, specifically helium and hydrogen ; caused by
the nuclear fusion
Bigbang Nucleosynthesis - the fusion of proton and neutron to create hydrogen, hydrogen
fusing with another neutron creates helium

sunlight to reach the earth ; about 1.4 m km in diameter ; a yellow medium sized star
Characteristics of Stars
● Color and Temperature - the wavelength that stars emit are related to the temperature of
the star ; the hotter the temperature , the bluer it is , the cooler the temperature, the redder
it is . The coolest star is about 2800°C appearing red while the hottest star is 28,000°C
appearing blue
● Brightness and magnitude - the brightness of a star depends on its distance
○ Apparent Brightness - depends on how far the star is ; the brightness of a star
seen from an observer from earth

same distances from earth ; the brightness regardless of distance
● Sizes of Stars - there are five groups of stars by size : neutron stars, white dwarfs,
medium sized stars, giant, and supergiant. Neutron stars are about 16 km in diameter,
white dwarf are 7300 km, medium stars are about one tenth the diameter of the sun, giant
stars are 10 to 100 times bigger than the sun, supergiants are about 1000 times the
diameter of sun
● Distance of stars - scientists use parallax to determine how far a star is away from earth.
The closer a star is to earth the greater is its apparent change of position. Very distant
stars seems to not shift at all
○ Parallax - apparent change in the position of an object caused by the change in
position of the observer
○ Light years - used by scientists to express distance between stars and earth ; the

religions, telling the time through sundance/ sundial, using it as calendars for harvesting and
planting, also used for navigation
Apparent movement of the stars through the night - stars move from east to west
Polaris - also known as north star as it is the current north pole star ; the brightest star in the
Ursa minor ; polaris stand almost motionless in the sky because it is in the direct line of earth's
axis above the north pole ; polaris can be located by using the pointer stars Merak and Dubhe
from ursa major, they are called pointers because they seem to point at polaris
Stars appear to move in the night sky - the rotation of the earth's axis causes the apparent
nightly movement of the stars across the sky , the revolution is responsible for the fact that we
can see different parts of the sky at different parts of the year
