Description

I love using this visually rich PowerPoint presentation bundle as a fun, interactive way to introduce my students to Greek & Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes. I created this presentation, quiz, and answer key bundle for a summer school acceleration class for incoming 6th graders a few years ago. Since then, I have used these digital resources with students in grades all the way up to tenth, and teachers from grades three on up have told me that they love it and use it on a regular basis.

The resource includes:

Greek & Latin Roots Introduction PowerPoint Presentation

Greek & Latin Roots Introduction Quiz and Answer Key

✱ ✱ ✱ This resource is included in my Greek and Latin Roots Mega Bundle. Buy the bundle and save! ✱ ✱ ✱

The topic of Greek and Latin roots is part of the larger topic of morphology, stems, and affixes found in academic language. Knowledge of Greek and Latin roots is important and useful for my students because it gives them the ability to spot patterns and a strategy to decode the meaning of unfamiliar words in a variety of situations.

Items Included

Greek and Latin Roots Intro Presentation (Microsoft PowerPoint - 104 Slides)

Greek and Latin Roots Intro Presentation - Quiz (Word, PDF, and Google Forms)

Description

The 104-slide presentation, contains background information about the Greek and Roman civilizations, connections to modern English. 104 may sound like an enormous number of slides, but it's designed to be pretty fast paced, with just the right amount of info on each slide.

Everything in this resource is 100% editable, so you can fine-tune it to fit your needs! The Word and PowerPoint files will work with versions 2003 and newer.

The presentation ends with a transition into a fun Greek and Latin roots project, my free Greek and Latin Roots Art Book Lesson Plan

The presentation is designed for note-taking. Slides that are meant to be copied have pencil image on the bottom. Slides that provide supplemental information don't have the pencil. I developed this system because I often want to have extra information in a presentation to embellish the core ideas, but I don't want students to constantly ask, "Do I need to write this down or not?"
