Prefixes of the Week: PRO & OMNI

This past fortnight, we have introduced two more powerful prefixes:

🔴 PRO – Meaning for or forward.
Examples:

  • Promote (to support or encourage)
  • Proactive (taking action in advance)

🟢 OMNI – Meaning all or everywhere.
Examples:

  • Omnivore (eats all types of food)
  • Omnipresent (present everywhere)

Activity Time!

Challenge your family to come up with as many PRO and OMNI words as you can. Who can come up with the most in 60 seconds?
