Do you want an easier way to learn biology terms? How about a vocabulary tool for medicine, zoology, and marine biology?

Science Roots teaches the roots in over 160 study terms from Apologia's biology textbook in the same sequence as the book, plus almost 50 roots from other life sciences.

Learning one root can unlock as many as nine study terms from your course. Dr. Wile, author of the Apologia series, calls it "a valuable study tool."

As you learn the roots, you learn your biology terms more easily, you understand biology better, and you gain a tool to help all future science studies.

Start it in your biology year, or start a year early and spread it over two years. Non-consumable. For basic roots, see Vocabulary Vine.

If you use Science Roots, these optional supplemental cards save time and lighten the course load.

The set includes 123 root cards (one for each study root) on 25 colored 8-1/2” x 11” sheets.

The study root and example words are printed on each card. Students cut them up and complete them based on information in the book, sold separately.

Consumable. Reproducible within one household only. NOT A STAND-ALONE PRODUCT. Requires Science Roots.

More fun, better reinforcement, less money. Vocabulary Vine teaches 108 common roots through familiar example words, spiral study, and 12 zero-preparation games.

Students in 4th – 9th learn independently in 15 min./day (modify for 2nd – 12th).

Reinforcement comes naturally as children compose sentences that emphasize the meanings of the roots and review recent roots.

Familiar example words (no obscure ones) help children remember root meanings. Soon they’re noticing roots in other subjects, where 95% of upper vocabulary is root-based.

By a homeschooler. Non-consumable.

This optional set includes 12 different bingo cards, 120 game tiles, 2 grid sheets for matching games, and a Quick Reference Glossary card.  Cards and tiles are on 8½ x 11 cardstock.

A fun, simple way to review and reinforce roots. Bingo caller says the root from the tile and players look for the English definition on their cards. Use the 1½" x ¾" Game Tiles for bingo calling, Vocabulary Vine games, and matching activities on the grid sheets, included. Great for hands-on learning!
