Author’s Purpose Authors often have more than

one reason for writing. After you finish reading a

selection, you should think about whether the author met his or her purpose in writing and why the author was or was not successful.

Steps in a Process Identifying the steps in a process

involves recognizing and retelling the order of steps taken to complete an action. Setting up a science experiment, solving a math problem, playing a new game, and sending e-mail are all actions that involve steps.

Visualizing steps as you read them may help you retell them in the correct order.

Prefixes Prefixes are syllables added to the

beginning of a base word that changes its meaning.

The prefix re- means again. Pro- means forth, forward. Trans- means across, beyond,

through. Identify the prefix, the base word,

and the meaning of each word in the chart.
