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.
This HUGE 282-page resource covers over 60 Greek and Latin roots and 200 different words. Created for grades 4-8.
This listing is for the PRINTABLE version only. CLICK HERE for the DIGITAL version.
There are 20 units in this file.
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.

This was well-made.
Thank you for making this. I've always struggled to teach this concept, and this product helped me tremendously.
A Bit Too Advanced for 4th Grade
I also purchased the accompanying Sketch Notes and LOVE those for my 4th graders. It's a challenge for them just to use a dictionary and comprehend the definitions of some of the words. I was hoping to use this resource as a word work pair but find the assignments to be a bit too much for the age group. However, I do come from a 6th grade background and think these would be excellent for that age or above. I also think this is a quality resource with lots of ways to incorporate it.
A Well Crafted Resource
An excellent Greek and Latin roots vocabulary worksheet and activity resource. The level of challenge is great with the added analogies. I especially like the assessment option for each week.
Love these!
Our ELA curriculum was a bit lacking in vocabulary, so this was a great additional resource! It took a bit more time to teach and explain at the beginning, but once the students got used to the format, most of the students could complete these pretty independently.
Amazing Resource
Perfect resource to go along with the sketch notes for Greek and Latin roots with definitions, practice pages, and assessments :)

Small typo on p. 114. Not a student page so no big deal. Really like this though! :)
Oh thanks! I'll fix and repost right away.
I love this and it is just what I need! This product covers 5 of the 20 that we are required to cover in fifth grade. Do you have or would you consider creating another product that covers di-,dif-,dis-; a,ab, abs; sur-, super; ad; pos,pon,posit; sid,sed,sess; cur,curs,cour; pes,pod; cray; ate; phobia; ped; sol,mon; rupt; leg, lig, lect; duct; grad, gress; struct
I do have plans to make more books with many of those roots included. However, it will won't be up for several weeks, as these take so long to make. Thank you for your interest!
