Prefixes Suffixes Roots | Morpheme Manipulatives
- Zip
Description
This resource is a hands-on, concrete collection of prefixes, suffixes, and roots. The payoff is so great when you teach children about morphemes—especially with concrete materials!
Morphological awareness—the ability to use the smallest meaningful word parts to determine a word's meaning—helps young readers in so many ways. It improves their:
· vocabulary
· spelling
· comprehension
· decoding
· fluency
· language development
· phonological awareness
· appreciation of part-to-whole relationships.
In fact, research shows that students with reading, spelling, and language difficulties can use morphemic awareness as a workaround for their disabilities.
This kit includes:
• Definitions, teaching tips, scope & sequence, suggestions for differentiation
• Preparation pointers
• 3 Morpheme Banks and set-up equipment
• Morpheme Journals – 3 levels
• Morpheme Cards (root words, roots, prefixes, suffixes, blanks)
• Bulletin board graphics
• Pocket chart word strips – for bulletin board
• Words with Morphemes (separate freebie)
I hope you enjoy teaching about morphemes as much as I do. And I guarantee that your students will be thrilled to be able to read, spell, and understand longer words, after learning to recognize morphemes!
