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.

This digital version of the paper-based Get to the Root of It [Book 1] contains 20 units, each containing 10 words for 3 to 4 related roots.
Each unit contains 8 Google Form quizzes:
1. Exercise A: Sentence Completion
2. Exercise B: Yes or No?
3. Exercise C: Choose Two
4. Exercise D: Analogies
5. Exercise E: Time to Explore
6. Exercise F: Apply What You Know
7. Word & Definition Match
8. Unit Assessment
Bonus Material:
•Google Slide Cinquain Poem template
•Google Slide Root Word Graphic Organizer
•Google Slide Frayer Vocabulary Model

I like the set-up, but I have to go in and change several things b/c the exercises don't require the students to do what is required of the actual Common Core standard. Ex, students do know figurative language. The Daily Language wants the students to find the origin, meaning & write a sentence. The origin is not part of the standard. I feel it's better for the students to determine the meaning using context clues (instead of just looking it up), then write their own sentence. Instead, I give them a sentence using the idiom. Then they must determine, the meaning using the context clues I've provided in the sentence. Then they must write their own sentence using the idiom. I do the same thing for the proverb/adage on the Wednesday section.
The prefix section- I change it around & have the students to identify the prefix. Determine the meaning of the prefix, then then the meaning of the word. I do understand that when creating this product, it's created to serve teachers all over that may have different standard that they must follow. I'd like to send examples of how I tweak the Daily Language.
Hello. Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. While the origin is not part of the standard, students find this information very interesting and knowing the origin does help students retain the meaning. I will also add that the act of finding the origin is a common core standard: "Consult reference materials (e.g., dictionaries, glossaries, thesauruses), both print and digital, to find the pronunciation and determine or clarify the precise meaning of key words and phrases." I am happy to hear that you have been able to adapt this resource to meet your teaching needs, though.
Kind of high expectations before reading -- concepts are challenging for many younger students with nothing concrete from which to build references. With the right group, it would be great.
great resource
Very clear. My only suggestion would be more text structures and lines in the boxes.
I downloaded this file and had a hard time printing the interactive cards in the format I see on the screen. It is printing in portrait and not landscape to fit the 3M sticky notes. I will keep trying to figure this out.
Hi Monique. This is the first I am hearing of this issue. Please make sure you are opening and printing the file from the latest version of Adobe Reader. If you still need help, contact TpT customer support. They will resolve the issue.

I purchased the digital version (not the print), so I already have the exercises in the Google Forms format. I was checking to see if the print version was included with the digital purchase. Thanks for responding!
Thanks for reaching out. These are separate resources as the digital versions take 100s of hours to create. Many digital resources out there are simply an image of a worksheet/printable embedded into a Google Slide with blank text boxes pasted on top of them. Creating digital resources in this manner is a simple process that only takes a few hours, and you are more than welcome to adapt the printable version as described for your personal use. Our digital versions are all created in Google Forms, so teachers can save time using the self-grading feature, which is not available in Google Slides. As mentioned above, creating Google Forms is very labor and time-intensive, so we decided to list these separately. You are more than welcome to use the printable versions you own to create your own Google Forms to use with your students only.
The printable version is available here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Greek-and-Latin-Roots-Morphology-Vocabulary-Worksheets-Assessments-Book-1-882185
Hi. I was able to access the Google Forms but I don't see where to access the Bonus Google Slides content. My download included just a spreadsheet with links to the 160 Google Forms (8 for each of the 20 units) and the 19-page PDF Preview.
Hello! The links for the bonus materials are also in the spreadsheet. Please look to the lower tabs on the screen where you will see the "Bonus Materials" sheet.
I purchased the digital version of this. Is there a print version available with the purchase? Thanks!

I am unable to open the file. It says it is a zip file, but I am unable to extract it. It says unable to open the file type. Advice?
Not to worry. Please contact TpT so they can troubleshoot this with you directly. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Contact
Hi there! My school uses Teams instead of Google Classroom. Would it be possible to copy the text from the Google Forms into a Teams Form? Or should I purchase the paper copy and create the Teams Form manually? So bummed my school doesn't use Google Classroom! Thanks for your help!
Hello! I am sorry about that! I would suggest copy and pasting from the printable version to create your own forms in Teams. I think it would be easier to do, and then you will have both versions.
Love this resource! My student and I wanted to point out that the resource [3D] question numbers are very out of order :) Thank you!
Hello! I just checked the Google Form, but I do not see anything out of order. Could you send me a screenshot? info@teacherthrive.com

These activities are assigned in Google Classroom. I used to be able to collect their scores automatically into my Google Classroom gradebook. This year I am having to have students show me their scores and manually input into the Goggle Classroom Gradebook. Can you help with this?
Good morning. I just purchased this digital resource and I'm having difficulty downloading the material. Is there a way to send me a link? Usually my purchases have a link embedded for easy downloading.
Thanks for your help.
