Description
Latin and Greek Stems and Roots Weekly Lists Unit One and Two BUNDLE with Digital Distance Learning Option:
This Digital Distance Learning Latin and Greek roots and stems UNIT ONE AND UNIT TWO BUNDLE is perfect for teachers who want their students to learn common Greek and Latin roots. Each unit includes:
- weekly lists (10 words on each list for eight weeks)
- a mid-week matching quiz
- an end-of-week test (which is progressive and includes stems from prior weeks)
NOTE: The test at the end of each week includes 20 roots (except the first week only has ten because there isn’t an established pool to pull additional parts yet). For the ninth week, there is a final test with all 80 roots.
Since each week builds on the previous week, the retention of information remains high. As an added activity, my students keep a ring with flashcards on them in their desks/backpacks and will add ten new stems each week so that they can study ALL the stems each week, not just the new ones for that week.
Please take a look at the individual files here:
Why should students learn to use Latin and Greek stems and roots?
- It is part of the curriculum for vocabulary
- Latin makes unknown English words more accessible
- Children who have studied Latin score higher on standardized tests, including SAT, ACT, M-CAT
- It gives children a set of terms to help them unlock unknown words by using word parts
- Studying common Latin stems helps children with math and science vocabulary
NOTE: THESE FILES INCLUDE A DIGITAL DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION!
These products include a digital option in Google Slides™ (as well as the no prep printable option). The instructions for utilizing the digital portion appear at the end of each packet.
This PDF file contains 120 pages + Google Slides™.

This was an excellent product to get me started teaching stems and roots. Includes accurate stem/root lists with definitions, one quiz and one test for each week. I appreciate that the tests are cumulative and require students to retain and recall information from previous weeks.

Great product!
Cheryl B –
Very thorough. I needed something like this. Thank you!
Susan C –
This is a well-organized set of lists or roots with quizzes. Each root has only one sample derivative. The students need more practice to really learn the roots, and I must still create these practice activities, so the packet has limited value to me as a teacher. It is helpful a a foundation for a program but it is not a complete program.

ELA Gone Wild –
This has made it super easy to teach greek & latin roots and stems! Each week the students get a list. I have a bulletin board where I write these and as we read, any time we come across a word comprised of one of these we take a moment and write it on there. This has been very very helpful in teaching this. I believe whole heartedly in teaching roots/stems as opposed to traditional vocabulary word lists.
Megan B –
Great resource!

Got this to use for the second semester. Good resource for notes and testing but requires you to add other lessons and practice throughout the week for students to remember and fully understand.

mrskfirst –
Great for my Dyslexic students:)

Ashley W –
Extremely colorful and was very informative for my students
Breanna Robbins –
Overall I think it is a great resource! I do not think a few of the roots are age-appropriate put together or for 4th grade in the general example: putting together (-gamy) & poly…. when they look it up would be interesting conversations! 🙁
Barbi B –
I used this resource to create a digital word study notebook for my students. We discuss 2-3 new stems each day, Monday through Thursday, and then quiz on Friday. It is a great resource to discuss word meanings, and my students are really enjoying this! Very easy to assign to students, as well.
Emily E –
I have a few students with morphology as an I.E.P. benchmark. This is a set of comprehensive lists of words we can use for our understanding of word parts that appear EVERYWHERE! Thank you!

I thought there would be more work work with each root word.
