Greek & Latin Root Word Puzzles

Greek & Latin Root Words

These puzzles are a fun way for students to learn Greek and Latin roots! 8 sets of 12 puzzles are included for a total of 96 roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Each puzzle includes the root/prefix/suffix, its meaning, and an example word. A recording sheet where students record the root, example word (either one from the puzzle or another one they come up with themselves), and space to use the word in a sentence is also included.

This works great as an independent center, but it can also be used for group work or as a lesson activity. It's also a way for students to practice using dictionaries!
