Greek and Latin Roots and Magazines

Long time no post, huh.  Geez.  To be honest, life got busy and I just kind of forgot about the blog.  I hope to get back to regular postings, especially now that state assessments are over.  Anyway, onto roots.  This was not my idea but I am totally stealing it.  Our middle school Language Arts teacher is awesome and she came up with the coolest idea for the kids to practice their Greek and Latin Roots.  She had them use magazines to cut out pictures that "illustrated" the different words.  They worked in groups of 3-4 and came up with awesome posters that hung in the hall. 

 In case you can't see it, they used the word "semi-circle" for the pie and "pedestrian" for the person walking.

So cool!
