Perhaps it's because I'm UK based and syllable rules never became a thing here. I really struggle to see how the application of these rules will help a child to better decode 'cabin'. For those who swear by them, what am I missing?

A huge thank you to everyone who posted well wishes. 👇 Four days of barely being able to make it out of bed, but starting to feel a little better this morning. My heart goes out to all who have had this strain of flu - it's been a particularly nasty one.

I'll be taking a week off (for the first time in 4 years) of publishing a morphology resource. The dreaded flu has the better of me. 🤒

I’m really looking forward to getting my paws on this. Chris’ last book is probably the best all-round primer on teaching ready. I’m sure this will be equally good. 🙂

This is such an important root to know for elementary Ss because of the important academic vocabulary words that contain the root tain. It also is an easy root to teach, very straightforward.

From ridiculously slow internet over the past few weeks to no Internet at all. @sky won't resolve it for three days, and have just lost a customer.

Q. What is the function of <e> in ‘tense’?

More curiosity from me (I have an hour to kill sat in a coffee shop). Would you teach the <e> in race as part of a vowel split digraph, a consonant digraph, both or neither?
