Create a research activity with these task cards. Using print or electronic thesauri and dictionaries, students will hone research skills and build vocabulary. All of the following resources are available in print and digitally on TPT Easel.


TRY THEM BEFORE YOU BUY THEM!

The challenge in this FREE activity is to create a word that sounds similar to BUMBLEBEE and fulfills the clue on the task card.



With these 40 task cards, students are asked to find a word that ends with –ANT and fulfills the clue.



This set of 40 task cards requires your learners to find a word that contains the /bē/ sound, or similar, and fulfills the clue.
