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 used this resource for 7th grade ELA. They struggled with analogies, but with some scaffolding, they improved. I love the sequential order of covering the roots.
Really liked this root word bundle out of all the ones I've seen. It will take a while to get through it, which means I have my lessons planned thanks to you. You've made my life easier, while making sure I teach my children valuable information.
I love having a resource that can be used to support our Greek/Latin interactive notebooks. I tried a lesson or two at the end of the year last year with my advanced language arts students. I plan to make it a regular activity this upcoming year.
The lessons and activities are great! The analogies are challenging, but so helpful for critical thinking. Quizzes are also well done. Great resource!
I like this resource very much. There are a variety of activities to choose from. I do modify some of the activities because the vocabulary is sometimes too advanced for my tutoring students.
