Objective: To create and understand compound words.

Supply students with half of a sentence strip with the first part of a compound word.(i.e. one student gets the word "star" and the other student gets the word "fish") Then have the whole class stand and the students have to locate their mate. Once they have found their partner with the other half of the compound word, have students recite what word they created when they found each other!
