Detailed Product Description

There are 4 different card games in one deck. Each game (or level) is designed to be fun and stress-free for children and adults alike!

Pre-Roots is played like "GO FISH". It teaches the English meanings to the 42 Greek and Latin roots included in Rummy Roots and More Roots. We have chosen the most familiar roots to give confidence to even the youngest of players. (Example: Micro, Phone, etc.) Alphabetizing skills are practiced in this game.

Level 1 is played by combining two Greek or Latin root cards together to form English words. (Example: Auto + Graph = Autograph) Players become familiar with Dictionary Guide Words in the Roots Word Lists and are introduced to the vocabulary words used in 1, 2 and 3.

Level 2 continues combining roots together to form English words. The Stump Card is used to the "Roots Dictionaries". In this level players learn the definitions of 2 root combinations included in Rummy Roots and More Roots.

Level 3 is played similar to "Rummy". Players now include 3 root card combinations from the Roots and More Roots Dictionaries. (Example: Auto + Bios + Graph) To stretch Players from familiar words to those of higher difficulty, players at this level may "steal" cards from opponents whenever possible and receive double points!
