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!

560+ page resource that covers over 120 Greek and Latin roots and 200 different words. Created for grades 4-8.

*There are 20 units in each book, 40 units total in this bundle.

Each unit contains:

*A 4-page student packet, which includes 6 different vocabulary activities

*An individual “Word & Definition Sort”

*A set of 20 “Concentration” game cards

*A complete word wall with “headers” for each root

*A unit assessment

*Also included are unit word lists and answer keys for the student packets.

Rosalinda Jaimes

I was wondering if you have developed quizzes or unit assessments to go with these? I absolutely would love it if you did or could :) Thank you for sorting these words into units for it makes it that much more meaningful to the students.

Teacher Thrive

Yep! I'll be working on unit tests for both books over the summer. They should be finished by late Aug and will be available as a free update for people who have already purchased the books.

UPDATE: The quizzes have been added!

Gary N.

This is great. I will be using it next year to replace what I have been using for the past few years.

Mandee Ashline

Very excited to get this bundled set and to have a better vocabulary program next school year.

Keith M.

Great resource, well thought out. Caters for different learning styles and makes it really fun/easy to cover an essential knowledge area. Will definitely use over and over, and be following this author.

Jennifer Morrison

For a while now I have been trying to figure a way to implement this into my class room. Thank you so much!

I LOVE this resource. Hoping to get an error changed. Book 1, Unit 4: Around We Go. Can you review the answer key? I believe answers 1 and 2 are switched. NVM...sorry. My helper grabbed the wrong answer key and wasn't using the quiz key. Love your resource. Thanks!

Teacher Thrive

Thank you for letting me know about this. I’ll review the answer key and make any necessary changes with 48 hours.

Are the answer keys included?

Teacher Thrive

Cristy H.

The test for Book 1, Unit 14 is set up differently than all the other tests. By any chance, do you have a Book 1, Unit 14 test that is similar to the style of all the other tests (5 fill-in-the-blank, 5 multiple choice? Thank you!

Teacher Thrive

Hi Christy! The format for 14 and 15 are different because the roots (which are numbers) didn't really lend themselves to the split format that you see in the rest of the assessments.

Elizabeth T.

How do I print the word wall cards so that they are larger and they are the length of 11 and width of 8 ?

Teacher Thrive

Hi Elizabeth! Please make sure you are opening and printing the file from the latest version of Adobe Reader. You'll also need to make sure you select "no scaling" or "actual size." If you are still having difficulties, please contact TpT, as the can troubleshoot this with you directly.https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Contact

Lovin' the Middle

A few months ago I asked about having all the mistakes corrected, and I have not received any notifications that the document was updated. You explained that you hired someone to proofread your work. Are the mistakes still being corrected? I would like to use this resource for the upcoming school year, but I will not use it with all the mistakes that were found on the document originally.

Teacher Thrive

Hi Tara! Yes, all the errors were corrected in the spring:-). The latest file is posted under "My Purchases." TpT just started sending out notifications for product updates, so that is why you never received an email.

Helen S.

Are the unit activities the same every unit or do they change?

Teacher Thrive

Hello Helen! The activities are the same in each unit. You can check the preview to see what one unit looks like.
