This reading vocabulary lesson focuses on using word origins to determine the meaning of unknown words. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the root in a word, and determine the root origin and meaning from the table.

In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
