Linnea Ehri, a distinguished professor known for her work on orthographic mapping, explains how morphemes bind spellings to meanings, enhancing sight word memory. Pete Bowers, an advocate of morphological binding theory, discusses how morphology connects orthography, phonology, and semantics, helping students grasp irregular words. Kenn Apel, an expert in morphological awareness, highlights assessment strategies and their importance in reading and spelling interventions.
