This session will provide teachers information about the six-syllable types as they relate to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), including ensuring that students have the knowledge of letter-sound relationships to decode regular words in text independent of context (e.g., VC, CVC, CCVC, and CVCC words) and use common syllabication patterns to decode words (e.g., CVC, CV, VCe, final stable, r-controlled vowel, and vowel digraphs, and diphthong syllables). In addition, we will examine how morphology, including the identification, analysis, and application of the structure of words, can help students read and comprehend text. Teachers will learn how their students can apply these elements across reading and comprehension.
