Biology Connects to Language

Book excerpt: By becoming familiar with Latin and Greek word roots, students gain a deeper understanding of scientific terms. Biology Connects to Language helps students identify and define Latin and Greek word roots for scientific terms together with other words with the same word root. Each chapter contains several activities that aid student learning and retention including "Mix and Match" and a "Test Yourself" section. This workbook can be used with the Focus On Middle School Biology Student Textbook, or as a stand-alone vocabulary building resource.
