In English, the spellings of words include information about both meaningsand sounds. As a result, learning about morphology can help readers with word recognition (knowing the pronunciations and meanings of printed words) . Good word recognition skills, in turn, contribute to better reading comprehension. It can also help with spelling (Perfetti, 1992;  \nSeidenberg 2005; Tainturier & Rapp, 2001) .  \nLearning about morphology is especially useful because half of the words in English contain more than one morpheme (a word part with one meaning; Nagy & Anderson, 1984) . For example, the word restarted comprises three morphemes, re, start, and ed. Start is a word on its own, re shows that the start has happened before, and ed shows this restart happened before. In addition, texts for secondary-age students contain an increasing number of words with multiple morphemes (morphologically complex words) . In short, when students learn word recognit","cbCaid7DxLqItiiN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaid7DxLqItiiN","pdf",1530050,26,"English","# Contents\n## What Is It?\n## For Whom Is It Intended?\n## How Does It Work?\n## How Can Families Support Implementation?\n## How Adequate Is the Research Knowledge Base?\n## How Practical Is It?\n## How Effective Is It?\n## What Questions Remain?\n## Where Can I Learn More?\n## Appendix A\n## References","[{\"question\":\"What is morphology in this guide, and why does it matter for literacy?\",\"answer\":\"Morphology refers to understanding morphemes, the smallest meaningful units in a language.
