Word Study, Grades 3-6Paperback, 1 July 2010

When successful readers encounter unfamiliar words, they utilize strategies-- for example, identifying word parts such as syllables and suffixes--to help them figure out pronunciation and meaning. This resource offers dozens of practice pages that give older struggling readers multiple opportunities to review and apply these word-study skills, recognize common spelling patterns, boost their word recognition and vocabulary development, and gain confidence as they read and encounter new words. As a result, students become more fluent readers. For use with Grades 3-6.
