Beneath the Surface of Words: What English Spelling Reveals and Why It Matters
Dernière mise à jour 2024/12/09
Description
In Beneath the Surface of Words, author Sue Scibetta Hegland aims to convince readers that English spelling isn’t as unreliable or quirky as they may have believed…and argues an excellent case. For example: there’s actually a reason for the L in talk! Written in an engaging voice, this is an excellent title for building educator knowledge to support instruction in spelling, particularly related to morphology and etymology, with connections to vocabulary as well. Helpful appendices, for example, “Applying Suffixing Conventions” and “Working With Word Sums and Evidence Banks” are also included. Reading Beneath the Surface of Words is like taking a crash course in the complexities and rationale of the English writing system and is recommended for all literacy educators.
Beneath the Surface of Words is a thorough resource to help increase educator knowledge at all grades in order to implement the B2 Word-Level Reading and Spelling expectations, as well as Vocabulary expectations, under Strand B: Foundations of Language in the 2023 curriculum document.
