3. Morphology and Me In this lesson your students will learn to use auditory discrimination involving morphology. There are eight pictures which involve the incorrect use of irregular past tense parts of speech. Let your students listen to each slide and then try to determine which word is in the incorrect form. An advanced step would be for the student(s) to then state the sentence in the correct manner. An additional goal of this power point presentation is to build on the students’ vocabulary skills. You may wish to have your students point to the underlined vocabulary words as you ask, “Show me the____________.” Please browse my web page for more ready to use activities involving morphology.
