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 :)

What does the digital download include for $19.99? 282 pages?
This 282-page resource covers over 60 Greek and Latin roots and 200 different words. Created for grades 4-8. There are 20 units in this file.
Is it the same words and practice work for 4th-7th grade or specific for each? I teach 4th and they seemed a little difficult.
Hi,
Your materials look great and I have book 1 in my cart but just wanted to ask about the assessments for each unit. The preview shows 10 questions. Is that the length of the whole assessment for each unit or is it longer?
Thanks for putting these together.
Sincerely,
Karen
Thanks for reaching out! Yes, the assessment for each unit is 10 questions.
Hi there!
I purchased this product and the sketch notes. I'd like to combine the two files and arrange the files by lesson to simplify my printing in the future. I cannot do this since the file is password protected. Do you have a file that includes both or that is organized with all the unit resources together?
Thanks!
Hi Michelle,
Unfortunately, we do not have a file of these that are combined.
I have purchase that resource. Can you tell me where the the assessments are located?
Thank you ,
Carol Allen
They begin on page 262 of the PDF.
Hey,
I’m asking about tests for the Greek and Latin Root words book 1.
Do you any for them ? Sorry I didn’t specify earlier.
Thank you
Carol Allen
Hello! Not to worry. Yes, assessments are included for each unit.
Hello! I love your product! I noticed that you now have a digital version of this. Due to the pandemic, my school district is currently using a Hybrid model of learning - 2 days in person, 3 days remote, and LOTS of Google Meets. Having paid for this purchase, would it be possible to have access to the digital version?
Thanks for reaching out. These are separate resources as the digital versions take 100s of hours to create. Many digital resources out there are simply an image of a worksheet/printable embedded into a Google Slide with blank text boxes pasted on top of them. Creating digital resources in this manner is a simple process that only takes a few hours, and you are more than welcome to adapt the printable version as described for your personal use. Our digital versions are all created in Google Forms, so teachers can save time using the self-grading feature, which is not available in Google Slides. As mentioned above, creating Google Forms is very labor and time-intensive, so we decided to list these separately. You are more than welcome to use the printable versions you own to create your own Google Forms to use with your students only.
Hello,
I’ve already downloaded the files so I’m won’t be asking to exchange the resource. “Let’s get to the root of it book 1”.
You mentioned making a copy of it and then deleting what I didn’t want of need. How can I do that ?
Thanks for your help.
Carol Allen
Hello! You can just copy and paste the file from the folder and onto your desktop or another folder and then you'll need to expand the page thumbnails while you have the copy of the PDF open and then you can select the pages you wish to remove.
Here are a few tips:
- Make sure your Adobe Reader is up to date.
- Try "Save As" to create a new document if copying to your desktop does not work.
Do you have a digital version of this?
Hi Carey,
Yes we do! Here is the link: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/DIGITAL-Greek-and-Latin-Roots-Book-1-Distance-Learning-5351808
Is there a way you can update this and make the GL available for distance learning through google classroom? I used this everyday in my classroom, but really need it available for distance learning.
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for reaching out! We do have the Greek and Latin Roots Book 1 available digitally here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/DIGITAL-Greek-and-Latin-Roots-Book-1-Distance-Learning-5351808
These are separate resources, as the digital versions take 100s of hours to create.
