Students with dyslexia and related reading difficulties can benefit from explicit, systematic morphology instruction for decoding and understanding multisyllabic words. When studying morphemes, students learn to identify, spell, and define prefixes, suffixes, and roots, simultaneously addressing both word recognition and language comprehension. The article will discuss the importance of morphology as part of word study, illustrate a structured lesson plan using a Structured Literacy (SL) approach for introducing a new morpheme, and provide resources for planning morphology lessons. Ideally suited for upper elementary teachers and interventionists who work with students with dyslexia and language-based learning differences, the article describes reliable attack strategies for reading morphologically complex words.
