Book Description
Workbook with 30 topic-specific, classroom-ready lessons that teach Greek & Latin roots/stems/prefixes/suffixes in the Physical Science classroom. Each lesson includes a list of morphemes used in the vocabulary in a specific unit of study, quizzes, worksheets, and answer keys. Big words in science almost always break into smaller "words" called morphemes (or roots, stems, prefixes, of suffixes). Once students learn the meanings of common morphemes, they find larger vocabulary words easier to read and understand. This book differs from others like it in several ways. First, it organizes lists of morphemes by topic to allow a science teacher to connect them to the current unit of study. Second, it defines example words in order to make them meaningful to students, to ensure that students can connect the meaning of a morpheme to the examples given. Ultimately, the goal of this publication is to increase students' understandings of scientific terminology. An increased ability to decipher unfamiliar vocabulary words benefits any student, but especially those moving on to college or to work in the fields of science, medicine, engineering, and/or technology.

Power Tools for Literacy
Author: Verena Rau
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780979092527
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
The 300 systematic, engaging lessons in the second edition of Power Tools for Literacy are aligned with the Orton Gillingham method and the Common Core Reading Standards. Become an expert in teaching phonics in the context of syllable patterns and showing students how to analyze or chunk words into phonemes, syllables, base words, prefixes, suffixes, Latin roots, and Greek elements. Mastering and blending these phonograms and morphemes enables students to decode and spell one-syllable and polysyllabic words with ease and accuracy.A report by The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development states, "For those children who are at risk for reading failure, highly direct and systematic instruction to develop phonemic awareness and phonics skills is required." In keeping with this principle, Power Tools for Literacy follows an explicit progression of phonics skills proven successful with struggling readers, students with learning differences or dyslexia, and English learners.Designed for grades 3-12, this program lends itself to individual or group instruction. The look and feel of the lessons is appropriate for any age group; material that appears tailored to young children has been avoided.Power Tools for Literacy uses a variety of interesting activities to cover these key topics and more:Short and long vowels with consonant blends and digraphsR-controlled vowels, diphthongs, and vowel digraphsSyllable patternsRules for dividing polysyllabic wordsCompound wordsReading, spelling, and defining 50 suffixesSpelling rules for adding suffixes to base wordsVocabulary enrichment by reading, spelling, and defining 50 prefixesAccented and unaccented syllablesFree and bound morphemesLatin roots and Greek combining formsWeekly spelling lists that incorporate high frequency sight wordsThe unique aspect of Power Tools for Literacy is the use of syllable codes. Each type of syllable has a code abbreviation. Utilizing codes in conjunction with a multisensory technique reinforces the structure of previously covered concepts and builds in review to achieve automaticity.This program is only one component of an effective reading program. It should be coupled with a literature-based curriculum, accompanied by intensive vocabulary development.

Understanding Morphology
Author: Martin Haspelmath
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134645961
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
This new edition of Understanding Morphology has been fully revised in line with the latest research. It now includes 'big picture' questions to highlight central themes in morphology, as well as research exercises for each chapter. Understanding Morphology presents an introduction to the study of word structure that starts at the very beginning. Assuming no knowledge of the field of morphology on the part of the reader, the book presents a broad range of morphological phenomena from a wide variety of languages. Starting with the core areas of inflection and derivation, the book presents the interfaces between morphology and syntax and between morphology and phonology. The synchronic study of word structure is covered, as are the phenomena of diachronic change, such as analogy and grammaticalization. Theories are presented clearly in accessible language with the main purpose of shedding light on the data, rather than as a goal in themselves. The authors consistently draw on the best research available, thus utilizing and discussing both functionalist and generative theoretical approaches. Each chapter includes a summary, suggestions for further reading, and exercises. As such this is the ideal book for both beginning students of linguistics, or anyone in a related discipline looking for a first introduction to morphology.
