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 end-of-week test includes 20 roots (except the first week, which has only ten because there isn’t an established pool to pull additional parts from yet). In the ninth week, the final test includes all 80 roots.
Because each week builds on the previous one, students retain information well. As an added activity, my students keep a ring of flashcards in their desks/backpacks and add ten new stems each week so they can study ALL the stems each week, not just the new ones.
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, and MCAT
- 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). Instructions for using the digital portion appear at the end of each packet.
This PDF file contains 120 pages + Google Slides.

I am a writing teacher, and I use this to teach Greek and Latin “stems”. This helps our kids with language, writing, and supporting their reading class.

Bought this set during my second year of teaching, and I love it. I’ve used it almost every year I’ve taught.

Good resource as far as an encompassing list of Greek and Latin roots. I was hoping for a prepared activity in addition to the word lists and quizzes, based on comments in reviews, but that isn’t part of the packet. Also, not sure how this is supposed to be digital in nature – only pdf files downloaded and there is no hyperlink imbedded for Google apps.

Hey there, Cynthia!
Thank you for your review. I always appreciate teachers who reach out to me with questions or clarification prior to leaving a review. Both of the files DO include options in Google Slides. Scroll to page 54 in each file, and you’ll find the link and instructions for use.
I didn’t mention prepared activities in the product description (nor are there images or indications on the thumbnails or in the preview that additional activities are included). Did you check the description, thumbnails, and preview for more information about what was included in the files?
I’m sorry you were disappointed. In the future, please reach out if you want clarification, as I would have been happy to tell you where to find the links for the digital versions.
Have a wonderful night,
Kirsten

A great resource for notes. Easy to use and implement right away.

Very thorough in terms of including any possible Greek or Latin root you can think of. Impressed with the author’s knowledge! For student use, the quiz and the test are too basic for my 7/8s, and having actual activities included would be helpful. As it stands, the product is just pages of lists, and I do have to create my own lessons to engage my class.
Kathryn B. –
Loved this resource! It was very helpful in class and the students loved it, too!
barbara P. –
This is a good resource for standardize test preparation.
Melanie T. –
Great resource! Would you consider changing the meaning and example for ‘cide’ to a more kid-friendly definition and meaning rather than ‘to kill’ and ‘homicide’? Maybe use ‘pesticide’ instead?
Kathryn H. –
This was a great refresher resource for my lower level sophomores.
Kelly C. –
I really enjoyed using this resource with my students. They were super engaged throughout the entire time! Great purchase!!
Ms Weber’s Class –
This was a great resource for my students. They enjoyed the work, and it has helped them understand the concepts more. It was also easy to implement with paraprofessionals!
Jennifer W. –
Thank you for this great resource! I like having multiple grade levels included so I can adapt it to fit the needs of all my students.
