Root word race
Teach a few roots a week, then play a fast game where teams build and define words using them. Kids start seeing roots everywhere, from "telephone" to "photosynthesis."
Why it works: playful practice with a clear goal keeps kids practicing longer, and simple learning games have been shown to build real skills (Ramani and Siegler, 2008).
