Check out this fun way to have kids study their Greek and Latin roots! This would be a fun way to do some last minute ISAT prep. All you need is some plastic Easter eggs (Anyone going to have TONS of these next Sunday afternoon?) and a small definition sheet. Different roots go on different halves of the eggs. Kids put the pieces together to create words and develop possible definitions. After there are a few definitions in each newly created egg, teams open them and choose either what they decide is the correct or most likely choice. The flexible side of this is that kids could create invented words or use actual vocabulary words. Either way they become more aware of roots and their basic meanings.

As always, I'd be glad to help you put this together!
