In this PowerPoint lesson the children are introduced to compound nouns and then shown how they can create teasing riddles. The answer to each riddle is always a compound noun.
Here’s one for you:
What eats grass and is definitely not a girl?
The answer to this riddle is a compound noun and can be found at the end of this description. Children love solving riddles and also creating their own.
This material can be used to both introduce the concept of compounding to younger children and for re-visiting it in subsequent years to consolidate the children’s knowledge.
This resource aims to show children that our language is interesting rather than difficult, something to play with and explore rather than feel threatened and defeated by.
The answer to the riddle at the top of this page is – cowboy.
