Teach Finding Little Words in Bigger Ones.

Groff, Patrick

Illinois Schools Journal, v65 n1-4 p18-21 1985

Once children achieve approximate pronunciation by applying phonetic rules, they usually can infer proper pronunciation. This supports teaching children to find and pronounce little words in larger unknown words. (MCK)
