The Problem
High school students need to learn thousands of new words each year. Weak readers start behind and can’t catch up.
High school students need to learn thousands of new words each year. Weak readers start behind and can’t catch up.
Teachers choose words precise to their topic and focus. The morphemes follow the content.
We co-create a reading task based on the specific words your curriculum needs students to master.
See how morpheme awareness and reading comprehension are working together in your subject.
Prefixes, roots and suffixes
Learn the parts and you not only
read the word but carry its meaning, too.
A simple glossary is a memorisation task. At morphed we offer something much more.
Look at how morphed can transform long words into meaningful concepts for students.
Students learn morphemes in short, targeted experiences that require productive engagement. Over time, students build a vast library of morphemes that morphed has them revise regularly over weeks, terms, subjects and years.
Subject teachers are not literacy experts, but need to build student reading and writing.
Grow the words a student can read, and you grow their access to the subject itself.
Taught explicitly, morpheme knowledge carries over to new and unseen words.
The academic words that secondary and adult learners need for academic success are the ones built from Greek and Latin parts. morphed uses an adult approach: no coins, no confetti, no cartoons.
You know your subject. That is all morphed asks of you.
The benefit of reading research without having to study it first.
Choose vocabulary precise to the unit you are teaching.
morphed offers teachers short, sharp learning modules on reading and morphology.
Teachers have never been trained to teach vocabulary, let alone morphology. morphed picks up this important literacy tool and does that work for them.
The word gap becomes the achievement gap. morphed closes this before it widens.
One reliable method across every subject, drawn from your own curriculum.
Morphological awareness is consistently cited as a critical factor in adolescent reading.
Teach morphemes and the knowledge follows.
