4. TRICK OR TREAT WORDS? webinar (PD539)
US$18.00
Getting a room full of diverse learners to apply the alphabetic code to words and start reading and writing is daunting enough without also having to deal with scary ‘irregular’ words! Do I heart them? Do I ‘map’ them in Elkonin boxes? Do I just set them for memorisation homework as whole words and wish the parents luck? Do I just avoid them for as long as possible and hope they somehow magically crop up in the minds of my students? Well, that’s a ‘trick’ approach. How about seeing them as a treat? Every irregular word tells a story. Don’t believe me? Let’s take ten fine examples (harvested over years of asking teachers, ‘What word is hard to spell/teach/remember?’) and tell their stories, whilst revealing the whole story. Leave this session with a bag of tricks to help you make every word-study session a treat.
