Welcome to Letterland!
Word Detective or Quick coding is the strategy we use in Letterland to teach students how to break down multisyllabic words. These skills will help them for many years to come when they begin to learn words like "misunderstanding" or "microbiologist."
Tricky Words:
Each unit has a set of words that can be sorted into "word families." (for example: can, pan, ran are all in the -an family)
Tricky words are words that don't follow any of the "usual" rules that we have learned.
