Compound Words
Compound words are words that are formed from two other words – something that can be difficult for children to get their heads around. Luckily, our Compound Word Cards make it easier for children to get to grips with it; they have to find the two words that go together to create a new word. Foot and ball for example, turn into football. You can add image cards too, so that children look at the image and then create the word that it illustrates. Easy and quick to make, this game is a fun activity for solo players or in a group.
