Description:

As students come to understand the connections and patterns within the English language, they become independent readers, better spellers, and more critical thinkers in all content areas! This newly revised word study resource teaches students the most common prefixes, suffixes, and roots and fosters a deeper understanding of the English language. Students enthusiastically explore the fascinating world of morphology by learning how to analyze word structure and use context clues to find meaning. Systematic, structured, explicitly taught lessons unlock the keys to the Greek, Latin, and Anglo-Saxon origins of words and build vocabulary knowledge.

The Student Books are consumable and include the worksheets and activities that students use to explore the connections and patterns in the English language, ultimately leading them to become independent readers, better spellers, and more critical thinkers in all content areas.

The Teacher’s Guide with CD-ROM covers word histories, analogies, word relationships, synonyms, and antonyms using instructional pages, games, activities, and assessments. The instructional materials on the CD-ROM (included with the Teacher's Guide) can be displayed via interactive board (i.e., SMART Board) or LDC projector. These instructional materials on the CD-ROM are not blackline masters and cannot be printed out for student use.
