Experts discuss teaching students to read irregular words, the role of morphology, and different approaches to decoding. They emphasize the importance of meaning and context in word recognition. Strategies include mispronunciation correction, morphology understanding, and providing a toolbox of decoding strategies for students

Dr. Danielle Colenbrander, Neil Almond, and Christopher Such discuss instructional models for teaching children to read irregular words. Topics include mispronunciation correction, balancing teaching approaches, decoding strategies, and the controversy around sight word instruction. The importance of morphology in word identification and challenges in educational research are also explored.
