[quote=Anonymous]OP here again -- more examples -- "prenatal" and "premed" -- it just seems implausible that an 8 yr. old would have any basis for knowing these words. Moreover, it seems silly for them to be studying these particular words when there are many other words that they would use more frequently and don't yet know how to spell. I understand that the idea is on teaching the prefixes, but then why are 8 yr olds tested on the meanings and spellings of words they will not use for another 5+ years? [/quote]
