Description

Greek and Latin Roots PowerPoints! 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.

Now you can easily present these essential components of English with these engaging and visually stunning PowerPoint presentations!

What’s included in this resource?

This resource is an extensive collection of 20 different PowerPoint presentations, each one covering three different roots. Each presentation includes ten high-utility words, one word per slide. Each slide includes a clear, concise definition, the word used in context, and a carefully selected image that will further emphasize the meaning and application of the word. Download the preview for a complete look at the Unit 8 PowerPoint.

These PowerPoints are an effective stand-alone resource for your classroom. However, if you are looking to extend and deepen your students’ vocabulary skills, then check out my Get to the Root of It: Book 2. The units from this book are perfectly aligned with the PowerPoints within this resource.

Tricia D.

I know there are assessments per unit, but do you by chance have any summative assessments that cover all the roots taught in Book 1?

Teacher Thrive

Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, we do not have a summative assessment covering all of the roots. However, we will keep this in mind for future projects!

Jennifer M.

Hi - Neither this or set 1 of the product will download as a zip. I have never had a problem with TPT zip files - please advise as to how to access my purchases.

Teacher Thrive

Thank you for reaching out. We're sorry for this inconvenience. This appears to be an issue with TpT. Please contact TpT so they can troubleshoot this with you directly. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Contact

I eagerly await using the PPT, however, I found a typo in unit 19 book 2, democracy slide should say "citizens" not "citizen". Are you able to make this update? Thanks!

Teacher Thrive

Hi Linda. I will correct right away. You are able to edit th PowerPoints, in the meantime.
