This set of root words worksheets is part of my set that I use in the classroom when teaching prefixes, suffixes, and root words. Feel free to grab and print them to teach to your own students!
We commonly teach prefixes, suffixes and root words in Grade 4.
All the worksheets are designed to be printed onto US Letter size (your common printer size in the USA). Make sure you select the “shrink to fit” option when printing to avoid any cut-offs on your print.
