Word Roots

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Fifth graders discover that for some words, the definition is actually in the word and that much of our language is derived from Latin and many words have Latin roots. They look at the definition part of the worksheet and go over it together. They then discuss as a class, other words they know that have Greek or Latin roots.
