Question

which is not one of the tricks we use when reading hard words? a break words into syllables b look for groups of sounds c find prefixes and suffixes d try to find words we know with some of the same letters

Explanation:

All options A, B, and C are evidence-based, targeted decoding strategies for breaking down unfamiliar words by their structural or sound components. Option D is not a reliable trick, as sharing some letters does not guarantee a connection to the word's pronunciation or meaning, and it is not a standard reading strategy for hard words.

Answer:

D. Try to find words we know with some of the same letters
