In this ongoing class students will learn a group of words pertaining to a certain anatomical division, body system, or species. Each class will begin with a new set of words, and how they are broken down into prefix, suffix and root. Diagrams will be used to help visualize as needed. There will also be common abbreviations that may apply to the topic of the day. If time allows, after some lessons, learners will have a chance to practice some words and see what they remember by playing a game or completing a puzzle or worksheet in class together.
