  • What was your favorite word from the blends game, and why did you like it? Can you think of any other words that start with the same blend?

  • How do you think blends help us when we are reading or speaking? Can you think of a time when knowing a blend helped you understand a word better?
  1. Blend Hunt: Go on a blend hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects or pictures that have names with blends in them. For example, you might find a plant or a clock. Make a list or draw pictures of the items you find. How many can you discover?

  2. Blend Art: Create a piece of art using words with blends. Draw or cut out pictures from magazines that represent words with blends, like tree or flower. Glue them onto a piece of paper and label each picture with the word. Share your artwork with a friend or family member and explain the blends you used.

  3. Blend Storytime: Make up a short story using as many blend words as you can. You can start with something like, “Once upon a time, a brave frog decided to fly a plane…” Share your story with the class or a family member. How many blend words did you use?
