MORPHOLOGY: PART I - PRIMARY

THE KEYS TO BUILDING, READING AND WRITING "BIG" WORDS

Understanding morphology is the key to decoding, comprehension and spelling of words. Students will be introduced to simple bases, prefixes and suffixes. By “building” words we will discover how one base can produce so many new words. This helps the students reduce spelling errors and guessing when it comes to spelling and reading new words.
