bnwhitaker Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Im really new to all this. I was going to go with Word Roots from critical thinking Co. Then I seen there is another option called Classical Roots. If anyone can explain the differences or what they liked better that would be great. OR if you like a completly different option. Quote
bnwhitaker Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 I have mostly seen people saying that classical roots didnt or doesnt stick?? And I hardly see anything at all about Word Roots. Maybe thats my answer is people dont like it :) Or too expensive?? Humm not sure. Quote
lifesadream83 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 we are using this series next year I have already purchased it https://www.rainbowresource.com/wldetail.php?&id=042181 Quote
bnwhitaker Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 Awesome, finally found someone who uses the Word Roots. Now to find out if others have liked it or not? Quote
Pen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 We just started Word Roots recently--too recently to say good or not for us as yet. Another family I know has used it with several children from age 15 down and likes it, but says not to use it book after book (or computer version after computer version) without breaks or it gets boring. I think it is a little easier to manage than MCT's word within the word, but I cannot compare Classical Roots. Quote
Lugrita Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 We've used both, and my kids and I prefer Word Roots. They're both good so IMO you can't go wrong, but my kids seem to get more and retain better with Word Roots. Quote
Abeilles Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 Have you looked at Dynamic Literacy World Build? We are starting that next year. Quote
bnwhitaker Posted April 1, 2013 Author Posted April 1, 2013 I will look that up and Im so glad to be hearing people have liked Word Roots! Quote
