The Reading Clunk Log is designed to assist students in identifying and overcoming unfamiliar vocabulary that disrupts their reading comprehension. The log encourages learners to recognize 'clunks'—terms or phrases that hinder their understanding—and apply various strategies to decipher them. The resource emphasizes the use of morphology, helping students explore word parts such as prefixes and suffixes, thereby understanding their meanings better. By engaging in activities like breaking down words into their root and affixes, students are taught how to leverage context clues and structural analysis to enhance their vocabulary and reading proficiency. Additionally, a reflective section prompts students to consider how this knowledge improves their overall reading experience.
