Danielle Colenbrander and Katie Pace-Miles discuss orthographic mapping, irregular word instruction, and the different terms used to describe high frequency and irregular words. They translate research about the effectiveness of different approaches to teaching irregular words. They also discuss the role of morphology - how understanding morphemes can help students decode and understand words.
Takeaways

Different teaching approaches, such as mispronunciation correction, can be effective for teaching irregular words.
Meaning and context play a crucial role in word recognition and understanding.
Teachers should provide students with a toolbox of strategies to decode and understand irregular words.
Temporary irregularity is a helpful concept for students, emphasizing that irregular words are only temporarily challenging until they learn the necessary grapheme-phoneme correspondences.
