I started daily morphology lessons this week. We did work with compound words, adding suffixes, and finding suffixes. The kids were really receptive and seemed to understand how and why to use suffixes. I tape recorded two of the lessons to listen to later and reflect upon my teaching.
I also interviewed the other students who I have been collecting data on. I asked them questions related to words and how they learn and use them. I will be transcribing them and posting them this week.
I plan to teach lessons regarding prefixes next week and then create some center games for the kids to play with during their free time. This group loves to play learning games, so I thought this might be a great way to fit in some extra practice with root words, prefixes, and suffixes.
