Morph Mastery: A Morphological Intervention for Reading, Spelling and Vocabulary Summary

Morph Mastery: A Morphological Intervention for Reading, Spelling and Vocabulary by Louise Selby

Morph Mastery is an accessible, practical guide designed to support learners with specific learning difficulties (SpLD) who are struggling with spelling, reading and vocabulary. It is an effective, research-based and fun solution for when phonics-based teaching has run its course.

Understanding the morphological regularities in English helps to support both spelling and reading comprehension, yet there are few practical interventions that take a morphological approach. Morph Mastery combines this exciting new approach with tried-and-tested teaching methods that work. The activities in this book follow three engaging ninja-like characters, Prefa, Root and Sufa, who represent the three core components of morphology (prefixes, root words and suffixes) and use their sceptres to craft words.

Key features include:

Exciting and engaging activities and games, designed to be used by individuals or small groups

Detailed, curriculum-linked assessments, enabling specific target setting

Photocopiable and downloadable activity sheets and resources

Written in a user-friendly tone, for teaching assistants, teachers and other professionals with little or no specialist knowledge, this book is a must for any school with struggling readers and writers aged 913.

Morph Mastery: A Morphological Intervention for Reading, Spelling and Vocabulary Reviews

Morph Mastery uses recent research on the development of morphological knowledge to support structured and cumulative learning. The games are fun and adaptable, the learners are encouraged to develop independence through their word espionage and the materials are engaging for all ages.

Professor Julia Carroll, Coventry University

What a fantastic resource! The characters that run through the book really facilitate the use of morphology to unlock spelling and reading for learners with SpLD. This book will appeal to primary school aged learners but also to secondary school learners, a group of learners who often get forgotten. The research based assess/plan/do/review format for the intervention will support pupils to achieve their specific targets, build their lexicon, extend their grammatical knowledge, improve their reading skills through recognition of common morphemes, and progress their spelling skills through encoding root words, prefixes, and suffixes. The addition of game-based resources should allow for the reinforcement, repetition and overlearning that so many SpLD learners need to help cement new learning.
