Morphology hierarchies, etymology, and reframing the “joy” of reading
The Be Podcast Network, an organization of more than four dozen engaging shows dedicated to education, and Reading Is Fundamental are partnering during National Literacy Month to share high-impact conversations about literacy with more than 40 unique episodes featuring conversations about the state of children’s literacy nationwide, best practices for reading instruction and engagement, strategies to foster the joy of reading in school and at home, and much more.
How much do we need to know about morphology and etymology to effectively help students? Is etymology an essential component to spelling and reading instruction?
Will phonics instruction bore students?
Is exposure to interesting books enough to foster a love of reading for people who don’t have solid word decoding skills?
Dr. Karen Dudek-Brannan revisits conversations with Anna Gieger and Dr. Jan Wasowicz in this episode and share thoughts on these questions.
