Students complete word family sentences and match four roots to example words. Part A has nine fill-in-the-blank problems about export, biography, and automatic in sentence contexts. Part B is a matching activity connecting auto, bio, graph, and tele to a representative example word: autograph, biography, photograph, and telephone.
