Word Roots Lesson #8: auto

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Knowing root words can expand our vocabulary dramatically. Use this worksheet to discuss auto and words in which it commonly appears. Two short exercises are provided here. In the first, learners match words containing the target root with definitions. Then, in the second part, they use those same words to complete fill-in-the-blank statements.
