Publisher's Description of Word Roots Level 3
This 288-page book teaches students the meaning and spelling of roots, prefixes, and suffixes that are the elements used to form words in English. Learning these word elements dramatically improves spelling and the ability to decode unfamiliar words.
The activities focus on using these words in context to help students incorporate each word into their vocabulary and retain the correct spelling. There are periodic reviews to make sure students retain what is taught in the lessons. Word Roots will add hundreds of words to your students' vocabulary and greater depth to their thinking and writing.
Each lesson has the meanings of prefixes, roots, and suffixes used to form the vocabulary words. The activities following the lessons include:
A. Spelling and Defining Words
* Match each given word to its correct definition.
B. Completing the Sentence
* Complete the sentence by choosing the correct word.
C. Defining the Word Parts
* Define the word parts.
D. Writing Sentences
* Write sentences using the words in the lesson.
E. (optional) Creative Writing
This book includes a pretest/posttest, lesson reviews, answers, and a dictionary of the prefixes, roots, suffixes, and vocabulary words derived from Latin and/or Greek word elements.
Category Description for Word Roots
Word Roots is based on the premise that the best way to efficiently and effectively learn vocabulary (and aid spelling as well as reading comprehension) is by learning different word elements – roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Word Roots covers both Greek and Latin roots, these being the foundation of much of the English language.
Each lesson covers one or more root words plus several
prefixes and suffixes, giving definitions of each. The student then works
through a list of derivatives, matching definitions with the words. Then the
new words are used in sentences, with the student deciding what is the best
word choice for each sentence. Students will learn challenging vocabulary words, with the program offering optional creative writing suggestions as well.
A pre-test and a post-test help to evaluate progress. Each book also includes a complete answer key plus a dictionary of Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes. The workbooks are reproducible for one classroom or homeschool.
