This resource acts as an introduction to etymology: the study of the origin of words and the way in which their meanings have changed throughout history.

Attached are 2 table style handout sheets listing root words which originate from either Greek or Latin. They ask students to list words which use them and to investigate what they mean. This would be useful to do in a computer room or using dictionaries in pairs/groups.

The powerpoint reveals the answers and of course can be adapted to add more.

This would be useful for KS3 literacy classes or within learning support (learning roots of words can help with spellings).
