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.

A great resource! Thank you! We use it every day!
My highly capable students (5th & 6th grades) love using this resource!
This has been the best resource for my students. We use the interactive notebook last year in 4th grade. Now we have moved up to this resource in 5th grade. It gives them all the practice they need with the words.
I really like how the lists of roots in this resource are organized. The groupings make sense to learners and are helpful when applying the new learning in reading contexts. I used these practice pages with google slides in the spring with distance learning.
This was a great addition to my spelling curriculum!

Just checking to make sure I did not miss Book 3. Will it be available before school starts in August? Thanks!
That is my goal. It will be on affixes. I am currently making assessments for Books 1 and 2 and hope to get started on Book 3 after.
Update: 8-12-14 Book 3 won't be out for several months. Sorry for the delay.
Does this include any assessments?
Yes, assessments are included for each of the 40 units!
