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.
Everything you need is right here!

I haven't started this with my kids yet, but this looks nothing short of FANTASTIC! I printed everything out, cut out the concentration cards, etc and am so impressed with the quantity and quality of activities. Not only are my kids going to learn a lot, but I am too! I am sure that I will be purchasing book 3 when it becomes available.
I've looked at several root word activities book, and I'm very excited to use this one.
Looks great - I like that there are plenty of exercises for kids to interact with the vocabulary. I also look forward to book #3 for affixes. Please, keep 'em coming...
Thank you! The affix book is on my summer to-do list!
Nicely done. I love the variety of activities for using the root words.
Very thorough.
Why reinvent the wheel when all you need is this! Muched loved in Australia too. Thank you :)

Hi there! I teach 7th grade and we have been using your Greek & Latin Roots Books 1 & 2 for 3 years now (starting our 4th year) and love them with great success! With everything going on and the need for digital learning - do you have the word lists in digital format? We did not want to post the word lists in Google Classroom for our students and take a chance of violating the copyright. Thank you for any help and insight you can provide.
Hi Victoria. You are allowed to use these resources with just your students on a private platform like Google Classroom. We did create Google Froms versions of these resources as well.

Will this be optimized for digital learning? I would love to keep using this digitally with my students as we keep social distancing and self isolating.

Is this digital (google slides)? Of course with covid & going to online learning everywhere, I am needing to get my digital resources together and make online lesson plans. I saw there had been a recent update, so that is why I am inquiring.
Thanks!
Edited: I looked at your links. They are totally separate from this resource. I can not afford to buy the same resource twice, just in different forms. Will you offer a lower price for the digital format to customers who have already purchased this bundle?
Hello LaDonna! Yes, there are digital versions here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/DIGITAL-Greek-and-Latin-Roots-Book-1-Distance-Learning-5351808

I have been used Books 1 and 2 over the last few years and it has been very successful. Happy to see the powerpoints you have added.
Question - do you have a digital version that students could complete if distance learning? I am looking to move this online for next year if possible.
