Greek and Latin Root Word Matrices

OVERVIEW:

These 42 root word matrices were designed to help students practice and review about common Greek and Latin root words (Common Core Standard: 3.L.4c, 4.L.4b, 5.L.4b AND 6.L.4b).

PLEASE NOTE:

• For root words that are found in more words, like "struct", I did NOT include every possible word on the matrix because it would have been too big and overwhelming for students to use.
• For words that are found in less words, like "stell", I included every word I possibly could on the matrix.
• Also, the root words "terr" AND "aqu" are NOT included in this resource like they are in my other Greek and Latin Root Word resources due to a lack of words that could be put on a matrix.
