In the Classroom
Bookmark and save this site to use as a bell ringer or for a quick center activity. Display on your interactive white board and allow students to try to solve the riddles with as few clues as possible. Use these riddles as models for students to create their own riddles to share with classmates. Beginning raders will need help spelling their responses, so try partnering them with a stronger speller.
