Test yourself using the Listen and Spell test.
In the English language, prefixes enable us to enrich our vocabulary and convey nuanced meanings. We do this by affixing the prefix to the start of a word.
The prefix re- signifies repetition, renewal, or return. It comes from Latin and means again or back. When added to a base word, it conveys the idea that something is being done again in a new way (for example, redesign or recycle) or that something or someone is going back (for example, revisit or return).
If you come across a new re- word, don’t forget you can look at the base word to help you work out what it means. Use the spelling activities to familiarise yourself with the re- words in this list.

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
