WordBits Unit 10 (Autumn) - Free Sample: Year 6 Morphology Greek Combining Forms

Try before you commit to the full term. This free sample covers Weeks 1 and 2 of WordBits Unit 10, our Year 6 Autumn morphology unit, teaching the bio–/geo– Greek combining forms, with the same presenter notes and retrieval structure as the full 10-week unit.

Aligned to Year 5/6 statutory spelling and vocabulary objectives on Greek and Latin word origins, and to the explicit morphology teaching recommended in the DfE's July 2025 Writing Framework.

What's included:

• 9-slide presentation (PDF and PowerPoint/PPTX): cover slide plus teaching slides for Weeks 1–2
• Full presenter notes: linguistic background, common misconceptions, and ready-to-use pupil-facing language, built into the slides
• A Quick Start Guide to get you teaching straight away
• A full Programme Map showing how all 12 units sequence across Y3–Y6
• Not editable: locked, polished slides, so nothing shifts or breaks on any device

Built for whole-class teaching, same as the full unit. Adapting for SEND stays with you, as the person who knows your class.

Want the complete term? The full Unit 10 covers five pairs of Greek combining forms across ten teaching weeks: bio–/geo–, graph–/gram–, tele–/micro–, photo–/therm–, log–/–logy. Find it here.
