This week’s Text is four parsing sentences worksheet for nouns. These are pretty simple literacy exercises designed to get students reading and understanding the structure of basic declarative sentences by analyzing the parts of speech in them.

Here is a worksheet on the Greek root morph/o, which means form. It can also, naturally, means shape. As you will see, this is a very productive root in English, and is at the base of quite a few big abstract nouns.

Here for all you social studies teachers, if you can use it, is an independent practice worksheet on latitude and longitude that I assign early on in the freshman global studies cycle. If students are to read maps, they need these words and the concepts they represent.

So today seems like an appropriate time to post this reading on postcolonialism along with the comprehension worksheet that accompanies it. This reading deals with postcolonial literary movements and personalities, so if you’re reading Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, or other postcolonial literature, this might be a useful adjunct.

If you can use it, here is a Cultural Literacy worksheet on the Yalta Agreement. This is…hell, I think I’ll assume social studies teachers understand the importance of the Yalta Agreement and leave it at that.

This week’s Text is a complete lesson plan on the Latin word root ver–it means true. You know, it turns up in words like veracity, verify, and verdict. This do-now exercise on the noun integrity serves well to open the lesson and hint at the meaning of the word root. Finally, this word root worksheet is the mainstay of the lesson.

Here are five worksheets on the homophones veracious and voracious, both of which are adjectives. Both of these words grow from Latin roots, to wit, respectively, ver (true) and vor (to eat). Let me put that another way: “I can verify that he ate voraciously.” Tomorrow morning, for this week’s Text, I’ll post a complete lesson plan on the Latin root ver; vor will appear eventually, but I haven’t finished fashioning it into a complete lesson plan.
