This is an exciting book for teachers and students who want to focus on skills development (speaking, listening, reading and writing). This book provides 40 lessons of integrated skills work with a strong emphasis on vocabulary acquisition.
Bulding Vocabulary from Word Roots is a systematic approach to word awareness and vocabulary building for students in grades three through eight. Based on the premise that over 90 percent of English words of two or more syllables are of Greek or Latin origin, Building Vocabulary from Word Roots teaches essential word strategies that enable students to unlock the meaning of vocabulary words they encounter inside and outside of school. Building Vocabulary from Word Roots teaches Greek and Latin prefixes, bases, and suffixes—the semantic units from which the vast majority of English words are derived.
*Interesting activities provide students with a solid foundation and develop their confidence. *All four skills are taught in a balanced approach. 'Let's Get Ready' can be used for review as well as for a warm-up for each unit. *Project activities that are useful for individual or group presentations are contained at the end of the book. Vocabulary gives students the words they need to talk about the things that interest them.
