WA5ELAP1
For example:
- reading and spelling words with common letter patterns but different pronunciation, such as <ough> cough, though, plough; <our> your, journey, hour
- reading and spelling words where the consonant sound changes with the addition of a suffix, such as the <t> in invite is sounded as a [sh] when the suffix <ion> is added, as in invitation
- identifying morphemic word families with common letter patterns and different pronunciations, such as sign, signature, signal
- providing definitions for common heteronyms (where words are spelled identically but have different pronunciations and meanings), such as graduate (noun, verb), read (past and present tense), wind, bow, record
