This bundle encourages individual thinking OR collaborative learning. These fun activities can be used in language arts class settings, and they can also be used for morning warm-ups, extensions for early finishers, homework, or paired assignments.

How to Use:

In the Syllable Puzzle, children answer clues using words composed of specific number of syllables they can choose from a syllable bank.

Meanwhile Word Sandwich invites them to cleverly insert one word into another forming innovative combinations. There are clues given to help students get started!

Categories prompts kids to generate creative answers beginning with a certain letter for distinct subjects like countries or adjectives.

Letter Golf lets players make real words by simply adding one letter before and after the given group of letters. They try to get the lowest score, which encourages thinking strategically about language structure.

Lastly, Untangle offers phrases that are jumbled together and need to be separated.

Grades to Use With:

These activities are designed for students in grades 5-8 and could be especially useful for gifted students or those who need an extra challenge.
