About the Event

Feb. 25, 2025, 9 p.m.

Learning to read long and complex words is foundational to advanced literacy development. Lexical morphemes, the smallest units of meaning, play a significant role in this process. But how exactly are they impactful? How does morphological awareness lay a critical foundation for advanced reading and spelling proficiency? In this webinar, Dr. Ioulia Kovelman, a neuroscientist and dyslexia researcher, and Kim Collins, an IDA Structured Literacy Dyslexia Specialist and IMSE’s Director of Academics, will explore the science behind morphological awareness. They’ll discuss what these skills are, how they develop, the brain-bases of morphology, and its contributions to word reading and comprehension for both typically-developing readers and those with dyslexia. Participants will also gain practical strategies for instruction, making this an invaluable session for educators seeking to support literacy success for all learners. Don’t miss this opportunity to join IMSE for an information-packed webinar that bridges cutting-edge research with classroom practice.
