Intro to Structured Word Inquiry

Learn to understand the richness and complexity of English spelling by investigating words via Structured Word Inquiry and the 'four questions.' Spelling does make sense when we study the interrelation of morphology, phonology, and etymology. Participants will learn to: * Recognize words are built with meaning-based units * Analyze words using word sums and matrices * Identify and differentiate between free bases, bound bases, and historical roots * Begin to use Etymonline.com to find etymological information * Teach the three suffixing conventions * Teach about function vs. content words, including high frequency words * Construct lessons to support content area vocabulary and writing * Lead investigations that help students make sense of English orthography
