Which reading level assessment strategy involves identifying root words and affixes?

  1. Chunking

  2. Phonemic Awareness

  3. Semantic Mapping

  4. Structural Analysis

The correct answer is: Chunking

Chunking is not the correct answer because it involves breaking down words into smaller chunks to facilitate decoding, rather than identifying root words and affixes. Phonemic Awareness is not the correct answer because it focuses on recognizing individual sounds and blending them together, rather than analyzing word structures. Semantic Mapping is not the correct answer because it involves creating visual representations or webs to show relationships between words and their meanings, rather than identifying root words and affixes. Structural Analysis is the correct answer because it involves breaking down words into smaller parts, such as root words and affixes, to help determine their meanings and pronunciations. This strategy is often used in assessing a student's understanding of word structures and can help in identifying areas of difficulty in reading comprehension.
