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.

These go so well with the interactive notebooks. Great resource :)
I use this resource with my children every day during the week for a quick 10 to 15 min session right after breakfast or in the evening after dinner. We talk about a column of words, for example water words and the root aqua. And then we try to use the Latin it Greek root in a sentence or we try to think of a word we have heard with that root in it. I studied Latin for 2 years in high school and 2 years in college and attic Greek for 2 years in high school and LOVED both languages. This had been a very nice start for elementary level. I love to hear them pick apart big words and decipher their meaning. Thank you!
This is an amazing resource! It is very thorough and well written. I definitely recommend it for anyone teaching Greek and Latin roots.
Students really enjoyed and I also used the sketch notebooks.
There is so much to this resource! Very organized and engaging! Thank you!

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!
