Putting Words Together Has Never Been So Fun!

If you had planned on using worksheets to practise compound words with your students, think again! Your students will delight in playing an engaging Google Slides digital game to build their vocabulary and reading skills.

Grab  Self-Checking Compound Word Activity

This self-checking Google Slides interactive activity requires students to combine two words (when provided with picture prompts) and then click the image/word that represents the correctly combined compound word.

To play, students will click on the compound word that matches the word created when the two word parts are combined. They will be taken to a screen showing if they are correct or need to return and try again. All the slides have been properly linked to make this a self-checking activity for your students.

By practising this skill in an engaging way, students can strengthen their ability to identify and use compound words when speaking, reading, and writing.
