This worksheet on the Greek word root pseud/o seems to me de rigeur for the high school classroom. It is a very productive root which means, of course, false. This root is easily appended to many nouns, which makes it possible for us to call someone like the presidential advisor “Dr.” Sebastian Gorka a pseudointellectual.

Here is a worksheet on the Greek word roots dont and odont/o. If you’ve ever worn braces or needed treatment for gum disease (i.e. with an orthodontist or periodontist), you will recognize right away that this productive root means both tooth and teeth.

As I’ve mentioned, probably ad nauseam at this point, I work in an economics and finance-themed high school in the financial district in Lower Manhattan. Wherever you work, however, if you teach high school social studies, or anything to do with early theories of capitalism, especially anything on Adam Smith, then you may well find this Cultural Literacy worksheet on the invisible hand useful.

Here is a worksheet on the Greek root hemi (it means half or partly) and another on another on the Latin word root demi (it means half or less than). These are short worksheets designed to open a class session–they are not full lesson-length documents.

Because I work in an economics-and-finance-themed high school, this Cultural Literacy worksheet on the Great Depression sees a fair amount of service. It’s a handy do-now exercise for any number of lessons in the United States History curriculum, I would think.

Summer break is nigh upon us here in New York City, and not a moment too soon. For the past couple of weeks we have endured the inanity of the New York State Regents Examinations.
This week’s Text is a complete lesson on using the predicate adjective in declarative sentences. There are two do-now worksheets to accompany this lesson in the event that the lesson runs into two days: the first is an Everyday Edit on Laura Ingalls Wilder; the second is a Cultural Literacy worksheet on the common Latinism in English, nota bene. This lesson also provides a a word bank of predicate adjectives that serves as a learning support. You’ll need this scaffolded worksheet on the predicate adjectives for your students; to deliver this lesson, I find it’s handy to have this teacher’s copy and answer key.
That’s it. I hope this is useful to you.
