For students to be able to read with greater fluency and comprehension, they must first develop their understanding of morphology, the knowledge of meaningful word parts in the language. To develop this understanding, students must learn the following: letter patterns and word parts, the relation of sounds to letters, and high-frequency word recognition. This document provides a summary of Recommendation 3 from the REL Southeast guide "A Kindergarten Teacher's Guide to Supporting Family Involvement in Foundational Reading Skills" (ED602032), a companion to the WWC practice guide "Foundational Skills to Support Reading for Understanding in Kindergarten through 3rd Grade" (ED566956). The companion guide on which this summary document is based assists teachers in informing and supporting families to help children develop their ability to decode, analyze, write, and recognize words.
