What Your Child Will Learn
- 1
Common Suffixes: -s, -ed, -ing
Learn to read words with inflectional endings that show grammatical changes.
Objective: Students will identify base words and read words with inflectional suffixes -s, -ed, and -ing accurately.45 minutes - 2
More Suffixes: -er, -est, -ly
Learn to read words with comparative endings and the adverb suffix -ly.
Objective: Students will read words with -er, -est, and -ly suffixes and understand how these suffixes change word meaning.45 minutes - 3
Prefixes: un-, re-, pre-
Learn to read words with common prefixes that change word meaning.
Objective: Students will read words with prefixes un-, re-, and pre-, and explain how these prefixes change the meaning of base words.45 minutes - 4
More Prefixes: dis-, mis-, non-
Learn to read words with additional prefixes for negation and opposition.
Objective: Students will read words with prefixes dis-, mis-, and non-, and explain how these prefixes affect word meaning.45 minutes - 5
Suffix Spelling Rules
Learn spelling rules for adding suffixes: doubling consonants and dropping silent e.
Objective: Students will apply spelling rules (doubling, drop-e, change y to i) when reading and writing words with suffixes.45 minutes - 6
Multi-Syllable Decoding
Use syllabication and morphology strategies to decode longer words with multiple syllables.
Objective: Students will apply syllabication strategies (finding prefixes/suffixes, compound word parts, and VC/CV division) to decode multisyllable words accurately.45 minutes - 7
Word Parts for Meaning
Learn to use morphology (word parts) to determine word meaning, connecting decoding skills to vocabulary and comprehension.
Objective: Students will use morphemic analysis (identifying prefix + base + suffix) to decode unfamiliar words AND predict their meanings, then verify predictions using context.45 minutes - 8
Review and Application
Consolidate all PH-6 morphology skills through complex word analysis, mixed practice, and connected text reading.
Objective: Students will decode complex words using morphological analysis, apply spelling rules, derive word meaning from parts, identify and self-correct errors, and read connected text with multisyllabic vocabulary fluently.45 minutes
