If you have any issues downloading your updates, please email me directly at daydreamingaboutdata@gmail.com

**All lessons include both a PowerPoint AND Google Slides™ version.**

Inside the bundle, you will find all my current Mastering Morphology lessons bundled together! This is a growing bundle and will grow to include English’s most common prefixes, suffixes, and base elements. There are currently 24 lessons included in the bundle… PLUS a companion Morphology Wall, portable morpheme bank, and word-building sheets! As prefixes, base elements, and suffixes are taught, explored, and discussed, they’re added to the morpheme wall and consistently reviewed.

While the focus of the lessons is teaching the most common affixes in English, hundreds of different free base elements (use, ease, heal, stop, rely) and bound base elements (struct, tract, hap, gard, velop, vise, etc.,) are introduced, explored, and studied inside the lessons.

As I create additional lessons, they will be added to the bundle. By purchasing now, you will receive all future lessons and updates for free! As the lessons increase, so will the price.

New lessons will continue to be released throughout the 2025-2026 school year. Because my creation process fluctuates and changes, I will NOT be setting specific release dates for any of the lessons. As I create new lessons for my own classroom, I will add them to the bundle.

The following is a list of the lessons already available as well as lessons I intend to add. Please note the “new lesson list” is subject to change.

PLUS… a companion Morphology Wall and Word Building Activities:

The Morphology Wall Includes:

• Morpheme Headers: prefixes, base elements (free and bound), and suffixes. Each header includes a concise definition to reinforce accurate language and help students understand the role each morpheme plays in word construction.
• Morpheme Cards: A comprehensive set of morpheme cards including: prefix cards, base element cards (free and bound, with meanings), and suffix cards. These cards are intentionally designed to be added over time, allowing the morphology wall to grow alongside your students.
• Student Morpheme Bank: Students build ownership of learning with a personal morpheme bank that includes: A done-for-you option with the most common prefixes, base elements, and suffixes – PLUS… a build-as-you-go option that mirrors the classroom wall and grows throughout the year. This morpheme bank serves as a portable support students can use during reading, spelling, writing, and vocabulary instruction.
• Word-Building Practice Sheets: These interactive word building sheets are designed to keep students engaged with the morphology wall all year long! These sheets are perfect for:
  • Morning work
  • Guided practice
  • Small groups
  • Independent practice
  • Exit Tickets
  • When I’m done

The Morphology Wall helps ensure that students are not just seeing morphemes— but understanding and applying them!

Mastering Morphology Lessons will continue to be added throughout the 2025-2026 school year.

Future lessons include, but are not limited to: -ity, -ive, -ous…

All future lessons will include whole group, small group, guided practice, and independent practice! Please note: future lessons are NOT necessarily in the order they will be released in.

These Lessons Are Perfect For:

• Whole Group Instruction – Use the interactive instructional slides for explicit whole group instruction (perfect for small group, too). Several of the instructional slides come with a printable student copy; print and pass out to ensure all students are following along! Everything you do, they will do, too!
• Small Group Instruction & Practice – Choose from the variety of animated reading and spelling slides designed specifically for small group or the countless student practice sheets to provide intentional guided practice. Decodable words & sentences, PLUS a reading passage (with comprehension questions) is also included with each lesson!
• Independent Practice – Use any of the skill-specific practice sheets for additional practice, as a “must-do”, or while working in small groups. With over 25 different skill-specific practice sheets per lesson, differentiation is a breeze!
• Assessments – Use the word and sentence dictation sheets (or any of the skill-specific sheets) as an assessment.

I create and use everything in my own classroom! You WILL feel confident teaching my lessons! I walk you through EVERYTHING step-by-step, in the slide margins!
