A Course of study in Latin and Greek Word Roots

My students love this program! This explicit and systematic approach to teaching Latin and Greek word roots opens students’ awareness of language. They see connections between the parts of the whole of a word. They’ll find the “ah-ha’ of a word. ” Jessie Kroeck, High School English and Reading Teacher.
