vocabulary

excellent book. great for grades 5 and higher. helps in teaching the the latin and greek roots. students really start to understand 'how words came to be.' book 1 is also recommended.

Red Hot Root Words

Great resource to increase your child's vocabulary. Nicely organized workbook, challenging; the prefect way to supplement my kids school work. My fifth grader enjoys spelling much more -- by using his knowledge of root words as clues to the meaning of words!
