This activity is designed to help you build your vocabulary. A large majority of English words are borrowed from other languages, among them Greek. By recognising roots from these languages and learning their basic meanings, you can increase your vocabulary tremendously. Your task is to create a school exhibition displaying your findings.

Class A - Greek Number System
Do this as an activity:

Click on the icon  on the top menu and go to the section called "Greek Number System". Choose a number (e.g. pente). Then research words containing this root or stem and make a list of as many words as possible, noting the word's meaning. Finally, create a visual display (diagram, drawing etc.) of all the words you have found for your root in the form of a tree.

Class B - Greek Roots
Do this as an activity:

Click on the icon  on the top menu and go to the section called "Greek Roots".  Choose a  root word (e.g.biblio). Then research words containing this root and make a list of as many words as possible, noting the word's meaning. Finally, create a visual display (diagram, drawing etc.) of all the words you have found for your root in the form of a tree.

Class C - Greek Prefixes and Suffixes)
Do this as an activity:

Click on the icon  on the top menu and go to the section on Greek prefix es and Greek Suffixes. Choose one Greek prefix word and one Greek suffix word (e.g. “anti” and “ism” respectively). Then research words containing these prefixes and suffixes and make a list of as many words as possible, noting the word's meaning. Finally, create a visual display (diagram, drawing etc.) of all the words you have found for your prefixes and suffixes in the form of a tree.
