For example:
- exploring Greek and Latin roots, such as those found in other learning areas: democracy – demo meaning people and kratia meaning rule
- identifying morphemes that are bound bases that cannot stand alone as a word, such as <ped> meaning foot as in pedestrian and pedicure
- spelling words using morphemes that often have consistent spelling although the sound may be different, such as in one, only, once, alone
