Is your child struggling to read, spell, or understand multi-syllable words?
 
Learning word roots will help your learner:
✨expand their working vocabulary
✨improve reading comprehension
✨enhance writing skills

Each week, we will learn 8 new words with a common Latin root through:
✨ Discussion: what do we know about the word?
✨ Syllable Division: Break down complex words into manageable parts.
✨ Definitions: Learn precise meanings that enhance understanding.
✨ Parts of Speech: Master how each word functions in a sentence.
✨ Synonyms: Expand your vocabulary with related words.

After each class, the weekly word list and optional activities will be accessible for further practice and reinforcement, ensuring continuous growth beyond the classroom. 

PLEASE NOTE -- Part I (Latin) and Part II (Greek) can be taken in ANY ORDER.
