Abstract

The anthology "Of Pioneers and Pirates" explores the DEFA children's film in its cultural-historical, film-aesthetic, and ideological dimensions. The anthology originated from a conference at the University of Halle in February 2019. The contributions discuss various DEFA children's films based on popular fairy tales or children's books by authors from the German Democratic Republic (GDR). The authors analyze the films and discuss topics such as propaganda, censorship, and societal norms. The book is primarily aimed at dramaturges, directors, and film scholars.

27. Putting Two and Two Together: Middle School Students' Morphological Problem-Solving Strategies For Unknown Words.

Author

Pacheco, Mark B. and Goodwin, Amanda P.

Subjects
*MORPHEMICS, *TEACHING methods, *ENGLISH language education in middle schools, *VOCABULARY, *SPELLING ability, *READING comprehension, *LIMITED English-proficient students, *MIDDLE school students
Abstract

The article discusses how middle school students use morphemes, or units of meaning within a word, to conclude the meaning of an unknown word and what teaching methods can be used to promote this. The authors note that many students use morphological knowledge, or awareness of a root word's meaning, along with morphological awareness, or the ability to relate a morpheme to a word's meaning, to improve their vocabulary, spelling, and reading comprehension. Particular attention is given to how this learning strategy is used by English language learners (ELs) as well as on a study of effective teaching methods for U.S. middle school students.
