THESE ARE CHALLENGING PUZZLES, SO TEACHERS MAY WANT TO PROVIDE HINTS AND/OR PLACE STUDENTS IN PAIRS.
The clues in these 10 puzzles contain two-word phrases from BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA. But there's a catch: the two words, while retaining the original order of their letters, have been merged into one, and the second word might even begin before the first! Students must decipher the two words to solve each puzzle. Challenges spelling skills! See the preview for examples.
