It serves as the building block upon which more complex words are formed. Understanding word roots provides students with a powerful tool for decoding unfamiliar words, thereby enhancing their comprehension and language skills.
Teaching word roots is an effective strategy to significantly expand students’ vocabularies across the domains of reading, writing, and speaking.
By exploring the origins and meanings of these roots, students gain the ability to decipher and construct new words with improved confidence and fluency.
This approach not only enriches their vocabulary but also deepens their understanding of the language as a whole.
