I was less than thrilled with this vocabulary builder as over 90% of the words in it are already in my vocabulary. It does provide 259 groupings of word parts [suffixes, prefixes, and roots] with 20 words in each group. There is an practice exercise at the end of each group and an answer key at the end.
