Anyone have some suggestions for a simple vocabulary program that has a lot of focus on roots, suffixes, and prefixes? Right now my boys' favorite subject is our Sequential Spelling, especially my youngest. He loves to be involved with writing the words on the board and pointing out the prefixes and such. I thought it would awesome to have a vocabulary program that would go along with the word parts that are easy to point out in their spelling program, especially one that could be adapted for use on a white board. (HINT, HINT, HINT Sequential Spelling people!!!) I've printed some stuff online for prefixes, but I really need an actual program to use to keep us on track with the baby due any day. Although, an online system would be fine too if it had a little structure to it. I found a used copy of Wordly Wise, but that isn't working well for us. Currently, I was looking at Vocabulary Vine and Roots and Fruits, but the online samples were so skimpy that I couldn't tell if either one was what I wanted. Most of the other things I've looked at seem to be more geared toward high school students or are too workbook heavy.
How about this one? http://www.jsgrammar.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=46&Itemid=31 This one has a few pages of samples: http://www.howtotutor.com/vocaback.htm
There's Critical Thinking Co's Word Roots program: http://www.criticalthinking.com/word-roots-a1.html There's also English from the Roots Up.
Thank you all for the suggestions! I'm liking that one from Critical Thinking, and I've liked the stuff I bought from them before. They have the day's lesson set up with prefixes, a root, and suffixes, and then activities for putting them together. I might be able to set some of that up on the board. I just bought Vocabulary Vine on Ebay, and when I get a little more $$ I might make an order from CTC if VV doesn't work out. I liked the price of VV. I"ll keep Jensen's Vocabulary in mind next year.
