Description

This was a great resource to use as I taught Greek and Latin roots. My students loved the theming across all of the worksheets. It kept them engaged as we completed the worksheets in our lessons.
I love this bundle! It was way more resources than I anticipated and kept my middle schoolers busy for weeks. I added this to a creative writing unit to spark some more imaginative language. I was pleasantly surprised as how well they increased their vocabularies. The practice with analogies alone were worth the price.
I love the rigorous examples and the correlation made with our English language. This resource helps the students think beyond basic knowledge and forces them to analyze meanings.
This is a great resource for Greek and Latin Roots.
This is my primary source for teaching roots. I like the structure of the units and the depth of knowledge required in the activities. I do find that I need to add review components for maintaining roots already introduced/taught. My students also like me to add in artistic and game-type components.
