Sixth Grade Spelling List F-17
Words in Unit 17 use one of these prefixes: per-, pre-, pro-. Their sound and meanings are similar, but don’t get them confused! Practice 3 review words and 22 new ones: perspire, propeller, procrastinate, profound, provoke, prophecy, permanent, impermeable, prescribed, promotion, progression, persuade, prevention, preparations, perforated, prologue, precede, precision, perceptive, proactive, prohibit, proficiency.
All 20 regular spelling words this week start with the same letter, and so do one review and one challenge word. Don't mix up their visually similar prefixes.
