Morphing a Word
Root Word Plural or Action Person or Thing Now or in the future In the past + s + es + z + er + or + ing + ed
NEW NEW Steps for using the morphing spelling rule matrix and writing sheet. 1. Say and write the root word (single or multi-syllable words). 2. Look at the last letter of the word. Does it end with a vowel or a consonant? 3. If it ends with a vowel, use the four columns under Vowel Ending: 1. Choose the correct vowel ending column based on the word’s ending. 2. Use the intersection of the rule column and the morphing type column and write the morphed word. 4. If it ends with a consonant, use one of the three columns under Consonant Ending: 1. If the word ending matches the Hissing column, use the intersection of the rule column and the morphing type column and write the morphed word. 2. Otherwise, identify the length of the rime. Find the last letter. Underline it. Underline RIGHT to LEFT until you run out of vowels. Count the letters that are underlined. Choose the rime length column. Examples: run drill toast letter grapefruit vacation 3. Use the intersection of the rule column and the morphing type column and write the morphed word. In order for the student to morph a root word, the resulting words must be in their listening or speaking vocabulary. You may need to prompt: I run to school. She xxx (runs) to school. Four Types I run fast. I am a fast xxx (runner.) of I like to run to school. I am xxx (running) to school. Vocabulary I run to school every day. Yesterday I xxx (ran) to school.
