Etymology 101- A Better Way to Teach Irregular Words

We've been working on this for 2 years... Etymology 101: A Better Way To Teach Irregular Words. What's included: Master scope and sequence that has 112 irregular words. We have aligned them with the Reading Rev Phonics Scope and Sequence so the irregular word can be taught with the phonetic pattern it’s related to! There is a brief explanation of the word origin or etymology behind each word. Additional words that follow that irregularity are included. Google Doc that has each irregular word mapped as well as a visual cue about its origin. Some words also have a fun mnemonic devise to help students create a picture or memory cue. Student anchor posters and practice guides give students a quick way to make connections! Several resources have been added to help understand basic etymology and terms. We are excited for more teachers to try this method and more research to be done! This is going to change the way you think about Irregular Words! Maybe they aren't that irregular after all!
