Public review of Vocabulary Building with Latin and Greek Roots and Affixes, Level 1 on Outschool:
This was a great class and my son learned a lot. I like how they are eased into it with words they know and can see the correlation to other words with those roots. I think any child would benefit. Rating 5/5
