Timberdoodle's review   Many moms have far more urgent things to do than supervise the making of Latin or Greek cards, but because you will need a set of cards for each child, this task can be overwhelming. If card making is holding you back from using this program, here is a solution. I prefer having each of my children make and maintain their own card files, so I used these cards only for them to copy from. It has certainly saved me considerable amounts of time and is more cost effective than buying a separate card set for each child. English from the Roots Up Cards contains 100 cards in a box. It couldn't be easier!   Features 100 cards teaching Greek and Latin words and their derivatives Average Customer Review: Based on 4 Reviews. Write a review.

Test scores in vocabulary dramatically improved! November 4, 2008 Reviewer: Melanie K. from Pensacola, Fl   We used this book and flashcards as our vocabulary curriculum.  The root words really teach kids to decode the English language.  My children's test scores in vocabulary have dramatically improved since using these lessons.  Although the book contains handy teaching notes,you can actually use the flash cards as a stand alone product if budget is an issue.

I couldn't be more pleased with the results! November 4, 2008 Reviewer: Susan M. from Derry, NH   We just began using English from the Roots Up this year. I wanted a program that would be fun and easy for my 11 yo son. I couldn't be more pleased with the results! Just the other day while working on his science he burst out, "Hey, Mom, I get why it's called kinetic energy!" We had just learned the previous week the root "kinesis" which means 'movement'. I've also been using it with some second graders in a coop class and they are loving it too! They go home every week and quiz their families to see if they know what the roots and derivatives mean. It's a painless and fun way to learn for the student as well as the teacher. Was this review helpful to you?

We love this method of learning! October 21, 2008 Reviewer: Abbey F. from Cleveland, TN   Both of my children, the 12 year old "wordsmith" and the 9 year old artist, love the game we've made out of "Roots". I give them a Latin or Greek word, then some English words they may know and they try to guess the meaning. They are often able to get close to the meaning of the root word which cements their learning. We follow the directions for making color-coded cards (the artist child loves to decorate her card with pictures of the word meaning as well). It's easy to flip through the book and pick and choose the words you will do - you can pick synonyms, antonyms or words that delight a specific child. We really love this method of learning Latin and Greek roots. Was this review helpful to you?

My girls enjoy using English From the Roots Up October 17, 2008 Reviewer: Krissy M. from Rocklin,CA   Both of my girls, 6th and 8th grade, enjoy using English From the Roots Up.  We are becoming quite "rooted" in our English language as we sit together and learn.  The amount of derivatives differ appropriately on the back of their flash cards according to each level of ability.  We plan to review these cards each year and build upon them.
