The English language builds words using speech sounds (phonemes) and units of meaning (morphemes). Teachers need to feel confident teaching phonics and morphology to help students understand the complexities of our language. When students understand morphology, their word identification, reading comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, and written expression improve. This webinar is for teachers in grades 3 and up who want to learn about morphology ranging from the most basic prefixes and suffixes to Latin and Greek combining forms.
