Morpheme Matrices Crosswords
Amy Reisdorf, a former Metro North teacher, developed these crossword puzzles and answer keys. Six of them target Latin morphemes (prefixes, roots, suffixes) and two target Greek forms and related suffixes. She developed them using Crossword Maker at TheTeachersCorner.net.
The directions note that students will need the charts of common word parts that carry meaning on pages 3-4 of Morpheme Matrices to understand her constructed (rather than dictionary meaning) clues.
