Making morphemes meaningful mini-workshop July 7th 2022 7-8:30pm (PD465)

YES, IT WILL BE RECORDED AND MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU AFTERWARDS.

“Is there an app I can use to help me break words into prefix/base/suffix?”

Unfortunately, that takes a human brain! The good news is, you can learn how to do this quickly and easily with some guidance and practice.

Come and join Lyn Stone for a 90 minute training workshop on breaking words into morphemes.

• We’ll start with a look at how words are formed in the first place.
• Then we’ll look at how prefixes behave.
• We’ll look at the difference between bound and unbound bases and how to spot the tricky ones.
• We’ll look at the two types of suffix and how they interact with bases and each other.
• We’ll also head over to Etymonline and look at how this resource is structured so that you can get the very best out of it.

We’ll study a plethora (pleth + or + a) of polysyllabic (poly + syl + lab + ic) words, ranging from very simple, to very complex, on a gradient so that you barely notice the change!

Suitable for primary and secondary teachers who wish to deepen and broaden their morphological knowledge.

INCLUDED:

• A recording of the session for two weeks after the live event
• Handouts for the session
• Templates to use in the classroom
• Links to many fabulous morphology resources

PLEASE NOTE: This session will be recorded and the footage will be used at a later date in an asynchronous online course.

WHEN: July 7th 2022 7-8:30pm Melbourne time
