This bright and colourful poster is a valuable reference tool for students and teachers in primary school classrooms. It provides a step-by-step guide for breaking down multisyllabic words, encouraging students to first identify prefixes, then suffixes, followed by other known syllables or sounds and finally, to say the word. This resource helps students develop their decoding skills and enhances their ability to read complex words.
Understand how to use and apply phonological and morphological knowledge to read and write multisyllabic words with more complex letter combinations, including a variety of vowel sounds and known prefixes and suffixes
Use knowledge of known words, word origins including some Latin and Greek roots, base words, prefixes, suffixes, letter patterns and spelling generalisations to spell new words including technical words
Explore less common plurals, and understand how a suffix changes the meaning or grammatical form of a word
Understand how to apply knowledge of common base words, prefixes, suffixes and generalisations for adding a suffix to a base word to read and comprehend new multimorphemic words
