Description
Almost 70% of the English language is derived from Latin and Greek languages. When students learn these “building blocks” it becomes easy for them to recognize and decode unfamiliar words that are related to a known root. It is also increasingly important to explicitly teach students the meanings of Greek and Latin roots as they encounter the very technical vocabulary found in science and other content areas. This is the digital version of the paper-based Get to the Root of It: Book 1.

3. Exercise C: Choose Two

6. Exercise F: Apply What You Know
7. Word & Definition Match
8. Unit Assessment

I was able to keep students engaged in vocabulary learning during distance learning
Great resource for greek and latin roots. Love the google forms and all the activities.
Excellent resource I used when I taught English! I'd use it again!
We use these weekly and I love that they are basically graded for me by google forms. I previously used the printable version.
A good resource but terrible wording, I thought this was in pdf form but it’s only google slides, I asked if I could get the pdf and she said no

I love this product! I have been using the paper version of it for a few years now. With distance learning, I will need a digital version of this. Is this a separate purchase or can I upgrade to the digital? Thank you!
Yes, this is a separate resource.
Will there be a bundle for the digital versions of these in the near future? Curious to try them out on my middle school students, but with distance learning upon us, the print versions seem less likely to be used at this time.
Hello! I don’t have plans to create a digital-only bundle. However, you can create your own bundle on my site. Please go to TeacherThrive.com/byob
Can these Google Forms be easily converted to Microsoft Forms?
Hi Julie. I honestly don't know. If you email me, I am happy to send you a couple to test out. info@teacherthrive.com
Any recommendations for uploading all of the Google Forms? It's very time consuming doing them one by one...
You should be able to click on each link and it will force a copy to your google drive. Takes a few seconds per form.
I have loaded the assignments on my classroom following the directions given. The students are able to answer questions, but I am not able to view their responses. Can you please explain how I am able to use the self grading feature, and see each students' response?
You can find your students' responses by clicking on "Responses" at the top of the Google Form.
I purchased Book 1. However, the only link in the spreadsheet is that of the bonus materials. Not to the units. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
We are sorry you were having trouble finding the units! Hoping you were able to do so. The spreadsheet has two tabs at the bottom, one for the units and one for bonus materials.
Why do students need the email address? All of my students are currently on google classroom but do not have email enabled. They are only in 4th grade.
An email address is not necessary when using Google Classroom, but the students must have a G Suite for Education account.
Once I get to the purchase screen, it says that I can't use this even on my own personal Google Classroom website, yet that is how it is advertised. Please let me know if this can be used online during this educational crisis time.
Hello! We are not sure why you would have gotten that message. Teachers are absolutely allowed to use any Teacher Thrive/Got to Teach resources they have purchased with their students on private Learning Management Systems likes Google Classroom, Schoology, Microsoft Teams, or Canvas.
We do prohibit users from sharing resources with other teachers who have not purchased the materials, however. We also prohibit the use of our materials for commercial purposes on platforms such as Outschool.
