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.

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 :)

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

Of course! Email me at info@teacherthrive.com
Are the answer keys included?
Yes, answer keys are included.
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!
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.
How do I print the word wall cards so that they are larger and they are the length of 11 and width of 8 ?
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

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.
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.
Are the unit activities the same every unit or do they change?
Hello Helen! The activities are the same in each unit. You can check the preview to see what one unit looks like.
