Cheryl Powell	Comment: We use this book with MFW, one year doing Greek roots and the next doing Latin roots. I have no interest in the classical method of teaching my children Latin. But learning these roots helps children recognize and decode new words as they read them. We had a lot of fun with it and they still remember so many of them!! 5/5
Lily	Comment: Very easy to use, easy to incorporate into any cirruculum. 5/5
Sarah Marie	Comment: I am also using this as part of MFW. It is very simple to use, with great results. We are now on our 20th Greek Root and my 1st and 3rd grader love to "figure out" the definitions of new derivations based on the roots they see in the word! This is excellent for vocabulary building. My children have become a lot more aware of new words and discovering their meanings since using this program. 5/5
