yeah, it really is great for SAT prep. but i don't knwo how to do it really. Cause you don't just know a word, you take it apart and understand it's meaning. But I don't know how to do it. I want to learn though.

My english teacher already showed this to me, its actually very entertaining to pass the time and you can imagine yourself hand feeding each individual their beloved grain of rice.
