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.

Educational and easy to teach with

Great sheets with lots of variety of roots. Good example words that the kids actually knew. Definitely worth it to purchase.

Great Resource

This is a comprehensive resource to support the teaching of Greek and Latin roots.

Well Done!

I was looking for resources for seventh and eighth graders to get us started. I use this every week, and then we find words in our novels and yell out "root word" to show that we are noticing where they appear in everyday readings. I do make my own unit quizzes and tests, for I need them to be challenged more.

Trying It Out

The best Morphology packet out there

These activities with assessments and word wall are exactly what I've been looking for! I've been piecing together my morphology curriculum with bits and bobs, but now I have everything I need. I also bought the sketch notes to accompany Book 1 and 2. I'm so pleased.

Kristina Fowler

Excellent Review

I can't wait to use this resource in my classroom. Students have to know their roots and I love this layout.
