Standard 6:
Objective 1
Learn new words
through listening and
reading widely.
Decoding
for Math
1.
One
way to help the students learn their vocabulary and use decoding is by
helping
them with pronunciation of the words.
We are always taught how to do problems in Math and to learn the
vocabulary, but sometimes it is hard to even recognize words if the
students do
not know how to pronounce the words.
2.
Another
way to help with decoding is through morphemic analysis.
This is when the students go through
the syllables of a word and analyze the meanings of the syllables. Through this the students can hopefully
break down a word they do not understand, define, and then understand
what it
means.
