This page has been created to accommodate the large number of requests that I have recently received from teachers. I'll be working on it and adding many new things. If you have any suggestions or request, please let me know at carl1404@msn.com and I will try to meet your needs. If you see something that you need right away, I'll get it done for you since I have templates for everything.

Enjoy!

Strategies for Strugglers:

Match two root words that make a compound word.

Distribute word cards to students to practice compound word development. Each child finds his/her word partner to create a compound word. Each pair pronounces the new word for the class.

Play compound word concentration, build compound words  and match with pictures in a pocket chart, or put together compound word puzzles (all available on this site).

Clap the syllables in compound words: For instance - say cowboy, now say it again and don't say cow, say it again and don't say boy. 

Look for poems that have assorted compound words in the text. Copy to an overhead and have students use a highlighter as an independent or group activity. This also helps build fluency. If you can't find the poems you want, write your own!
