Description
This is a complete unit of study (10 pages) for the Greek/Latin Roots Geo/Therm/Scope/Meter/Logy.
It contains a pre-test for 24 words using the above-mentioned roots, a process for having students personalize their studying (including a menu with activities), and a post-test that includes ten words from the original list. There are keys included for both tests and recommendations for how to introduce a unit like this to students.
This unit utilizes critical and creative thinking with choice and complexity. It prepares students for standardized assessment through analogies and integrates high-level thought with easy-to-grade multiple choice questions.
If your school uses Words Their Way(R), you will find it corresponds with Sort 29.
I am in the process of posting my analogy tests for other vocab lists and analogy instructional information. If you have a specific material you're searching for, feel free to contact me for a request. Thanks for looking!
