Word Archeology: Digging Up Latin and Greek Roots

After teaching Latin and Greek roots for 13 years, I was leaving my school to teach overseas. My colleagues didn't know what to do, stating, "What will we do without you teaching roots?" I told them I would give them my lesson plans. Well, this book is my lesson plans!

This is the best root book out there. It’s mainly because it’s adaptable for students in grades 4-12 and is taught just one day each week with an abundance of interactive activities. Students become word-lovers.

• Students master Latin and Greek root words, derivatives, prefixes, abbreviations, and common Latin sayings.
• Units cover general science terms, parts of the body, literature terms, and college student life.
• Every lesson includes reproducible worksheets.
• Extended activities include drawing, singing, reading medical prescriptions, and recognizing Roman and Greek architecture.
• Students play games such as Vinco, Tergum to Tergum, Pass the Stella, Gladiator, and Magnus Ludus.
• Includes review materials and unit tests, as well as professionally illustrated certificates.

***In addition to being used in elementary, middle, and high schools, Word Archeology is currently used in overseas international schools with English Language Learners, and with multi-age homeschool groups.

I so appreciate teachers emailing me to say how much they love this book; BUT what I really need are reviews/ratings on TpT! Please consider writing a review.

Thank you!
