Presentation Descriptor:
Participants will dive into the transformative power of morphology in literacy instruction. By leveraging morphology—the study of word structure, roots, prefixes, and suffixes—educators can provide students with tools to independently decode and understand complex vocabulary. This approach strengthens vocabulary and supports reading comprehension, enabling learners to tackle unfamiliar words with greater confidence. Through engaging examples and practical strategies, attendees will discover how incorporating morphological awareness into instruction leads to an increase in vocabulary acquisition and a solid foundation for literacy success across grade levels. The research on how students best learn to read, Science of Reading, recommends a strong foundation in morphology, which helps students comprehend texts from multiple content areas. Join us to unlock the morphology advantage and equip students for vocabulary mastery!
