Abstract

Developed by the ABCs of Construction National Workplace Literacy Project, this fifth-grade level module teaches word attack skills for technical terms used by pipefitters, using word parts and root words. Basic information on structural analysis covers roots, prefixes and suffixes, its limitations, and defining words using structural analysis. Next, the module provides hints for retaining meanings by building a card file with visual representations of terminology. Twenty-seven exercises are included. (YLB)
