Why Teach Morphology (Prefixes, Suffixes and Greek and Latin Root Words)?
When students gain morphological awareness, they:
-
build word sense.
-
build literacy skills.
-
build knowledge in content.
-
build an understanding of multiple meanings, through the study of word families.
A meta-analysis conducted by Bowers et al (2010) of 22 morphology studies found that morphology instruction benefits learners, especially less proficient readers.
