Here is a worksheet on the verb finish as it is used with a gerund. I have a ways to go before I finish posting these worksheets on gerunds and infinitives.

Here is a on the Greek word roots tele, tel, and telo. They mean distant, end, and complete. You’ll find this root, somewhat abstractly, at the basis of words like telegenic, telegraph and telegram (mostly obsolete nouns now, I suppose), and telemetry, all of which are included on this worksheet–which means, if the author of the book from which this work is drawn remains correct, these words are likely to show up on the SAT.

It’s a word used routinely in relation to the American Civil War in social studies textbooks, but in my experience never taught explicitly in social studies classrooms, so maybe this Cultural Literacy worksheet on the adjective antebellum. This Latinism, as this half-page worksheet points out in its two-sentence reading (with two comprehension questions), means “before the war.”
If you think it will help, here is a word root exercise on the Latin root bell-.

Starting out this already warm Wednesday morning, here is a context clues worksheet on the adjective effusive. This is a useful, but to my ear little-used, word, which is too bad. It means, especially for the purposes of the context clues on this worksheet, “marked by the expression of great or excessive emotion or enthusiasm.”
Maybe people just don’t effuse anymore. And that is too bad as well.

Last but quite possibly least this morning, here is a on the verb phrase feel like as used with a gerund. I don’t feel like discussing why I remain skeptical of the value of this series of worksheets.

Here is a reading on hypnosis along with its attendant vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet. I believe this might be high-interest material, so I have tagged it as such.

Moving right along this morning, here is a worksheet on the Latin word root tri. Do I need to tell you that it means three, and is found (as it is in this document) in such high-frequency words in English as triangle, triathlon, and triad?
I didn’t think so.
