Over the course of these lessons, students will learn to decode complex words by identifying their component roots. Each lesson package includes a PowerPoint to introduce the roots and vocabulary, printable student notes pages, and 3 versions of a vocabulary quiz with answer keys. Recommended implementation is to introduce roots early in the week, have students take notes and write sentences with the new vocabulary, then quiz them at the end. These engaging materials are designed for grades 6-10 ELA or test prep classes. With 105 print-ready pages and 119 slides, this resource helps students systematically build vocabulary in a way that transfers across subjects and even to college entrance exams. By learning how to break down unfamiliar words by their roots, students gain a lifelong skill to independently build their vocabularies.
