Greek Roots Resources

Use this collection while teaching Greek roots during word work time in your fourth or fifth grade classroom.

This is another free resource for teachers and families from The Curriculum Corner.

We have created these Greek roots resources to accompany our word parts collection.

These resources will coordinate with the others found on our site.

Learning the meanings of common roots can give students such a boost when it comes to vocabulary and comprehension.  

This set will offer a way for students to learn and explore Greek roots. This work might be done independently at a center. Or children can work during reading and then record words on pages of an interactive language notebook.

You will find the following in this free PDF for teaching Greek roots:

Matching Cards – Print, cut and laminate these for a quick and easy center game that will help your students memorize the Greek roots and their meanings.

Latin Roots At-A-Glance – Copy this page and place it on a bulletin board for quick reference for students or copy the black & white version for students to place in a binder or notebook.

Word Map – This page can also be used for interactive notebooks or to introduce and help students learn other Greek roots they find.

Excellent Examples Work Mats – Copy and laminate these pages for a quick review center for groups.

Interactive Notebook Pages – These pages are meant to be cut and added to interactive notebooks.  (You may choose to shrink them if you want to fit more than one on a page.)  Students cut them out and glue them into their notebooks.  As they find examples of words containing these Greek roots, they write them on the flaps and add the definition or a sentence underneath.

We have updated this set to included all pages with a plain white background in case you are looking to conserve color ink.
