Ginger G. Collins- General Medicine
Purpose:
The impact of morphological knowledge on students' literacy development has been well documented. The purpose of this tutorial is to illustrate how school-based speech-language pathologists (SLPs) can target morphology in their interventions to support their students' literacy development.
Method:
This tutorial includes a review of the concepts and terminology essential to providing morphological interventions, the norm-referenced and informal assessments that can be used to assess students' morphological knowledge, and intervention strategies to use across multiple grade levels that are aligned with the Common Core State Standards.
Conclusion:
This tutorial provides school-based SLPs with the information needed to get started developing and implementing interventions with morphology at the core.
