Teaching How the Written Word Works

This reference manual includes several useful features:

• takes teachers through how English spelling uses morphology to represent the meaning of words
• teaches word sums and word matrices as tools for examining word structure and constructing and deconstructing words morphologically
• contains a series of ready-to-use lessons, helping teachers and students act as word detectives who problem-solve the links between structure and meaning
• targets vocabulary, reading, and spelling skills!
