Description
Greek and Latin Roots! 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 resource combines the instructional value of Greek and Latin roots with the active engagement of Interactive Notebooks. Included are 120 Interactive Notebook activities that will help your students understand the meaning of several words related to over 130 different roots! Each root activity covers 3-8 preselected words. However, blank templates are also included so that you can select your own words. In addition to the Interactive Notebook pages, you will also get word and definition lists for each root.

I loving having the visuals to help my students remember all the morphology things that we are learning about.
My students who love to color really get engaged and remember the meanings of the word parts. Those who do not love to color just go through them fast and don't retain much. Then I have those perfectionists who take their time and several class periods to finish one page. I have not figured out how to find that happy medium where they all put in the same effort and gain new knowledge while completing these.
Great resource. I'd love an option that required less cutting/glueing. The kids loved it.
Great resource! My students were very engaged while using the resource.
I have used this resource for a couple of years now in my remediation ELA classes. I have paired this with the vocabulary that we are already doing in ELA classes so that they can have a visual representation of the vocabulary. I have found that not all of the Greek and Latin roots I want to use are in this bundle, but there are a ton of them! You could certainly build an entire year's worth of units out of this. Cutting and gluing this notebook does take some time. Depending on the lesson, they will have to cut out multiple papers, glue them down, and then write their definitions. For visual learners, I think that this is a game changer.

Does this resource match your Greek/Latin Prefixes resource for book 1? I have that and am using it currently in my classroom. I'd purchase this resource if it did match that program.
Hi Kimm! Yes, every root (and more) from Books 1 and 2 of the practice printables are included in the Interactive Notebook.
We use the Level VII Prestwick House book for our Latin and Greek Roots class. There are some roots in the book that are not listed in this interactive notebook. Are your pages editable or do you have some blank sheets included in the package that could be modified to fit our curriculum?
Hi Mandy! Yes, we have a blank template available. You can email us at info@teacherthrive.com for it. :-)
Hi! My kids and I have absolutely loved using this interactive notebook resource along with root words book 1 this school year...I am at the point of entering unit 11 (1 is the loneliest number) and am not seeing 'mono' or 'uni' anywhere in the interactive notebook (only 'sol' is in there as far as I can see). Please help it's our next unit to cover.
Edit to Update Question: Thank you for replying so quickly! My confusion in your reply is that it states on the Interactive Notebook page "UPDATE: After many requests, this resource now includes EVERY root (and more) from my Get to the Root of It Books!"...I purchased Book 1 to use with the Interactive Notebook materials based on this, thinking that all the root words are included as stated. It seems this statement should be removed since it does not because it's very misleading esp if purchasing to use together as I did.
Hi Jill. Thanks for reaching out! These two roots are not included in the Interactive Notebook. You can see what's included in the table of contents. These roots are, however, included in our Greek and Latin Sketch Notes Book 1: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Greek-and-Latin-Roots-Sketch-Notes-Book-1-3273969
I downloaded the freebie of this product "mort-" for my 7th graders and they have really enjoyed it. However, there is no time to do more than 5 words with the curriculum that we have to cover, and so I am wondering if there is any possibility of purchasing 5 words of my choice from this product at a lower price? Would you be so kind to consider that option for me?
Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, I do not sell any of the components separately. They are only available with the full resource.
Am I missing the root word 'SUB'?
Thanks for reaching out! Sub is not a root included in this resource.
Is this one updated to include all of the Roots for your Book 1 and 2 like the version is on TPT?
Yes, it is.
Hello,
I am wondering if I can use this alongside Get to the Root of It book 1? Can I just pull out the words for each unit or is this meant to be taught in your specific order?
Thanks!
Thanks for reaching out! All of the roots from Get To The Root of It Books 1 & 2 are included in resource, so it will accompany Book 1 perfectly. I recommend that they be taught in the order shown in Book 1.
Hello, are these meant to be used along with your root books 1 and 2? I’m thinking of buying those, and using this for students to take notes.
Yes, every root (and more) from Books 1 and 2 of the practice printables are included in the Interactive Notebook.
