Root Builders Match

In this worksheet, students use the root provided in parentheses to form the correct root-based word that completes each sentence. They must ensure that the constructed word fits both the meaning and the grammatical structure of the sentence. The activity reinforces understanding of Greek and Latin roots while strengthening vocabulary decoding and application skills. By forming complete, accurate words, students practice morphological reasoning and deepen their knowledge of how roots contribute to meaning. The contextual nature of each sentence further supports reading comprehension and precise word usage.
