Greek/Latin Word Stems Unit with Lesson Activities & Assessments

Greek/Latin word stems have always been interesting to me but not my students. Until now. After a decade of teaching, my colleague and I have created a dynamic curriculum that gets kids excited, keeps us motivated, and has increased our summative assessment results significantly! Students have improved their vocabulary as well as their spelling! Their confidence has increased as they become word detectives!

This six week unit covers 30 word stems. It provides 1-2 activities per week plus a summative test, modified test, and key. The activities are centered on vocabulary research as well as different learning styles. We offer everything from kinesthetic movements to drawing to graphic organizers to the latest and greatest technology (both desktop and ipad).

Keep your eyes open for an addendum to this unit with a minimum of 18 additional word stems, activities, and tests.
