HOW TO SOLVE A WORD CHAIN

To solve a word chain, you can follow these simple steps:

Steps to solve a Word Chain:

1. Understand the Rules:

In a word chain, each word must start with the last letter of the previous word.

2. Start with the First Word:

Look at the first word in the chain.

For example, if the first word is cat, write it down.

3. Find the Last Letter:

Look at the last letter of the word. In cat, the last letter is t.

4. Think of a New Word:

Think of a word that starts with that letter. For example, a word that starts with t could be tiger.

5. Continue the Chain:

Now take the last letter of tiger, which is r, and think of another word that starts with r, such as rabbit.

6. Keep Going:

Continue this process. From rabbit, you would look at the last letter t, and find another word that starts with t, like turtle.

7. Write It All Down:

Write down all the words you come up with in the order they connect:

Example: cat → tiger → rabbit → turtle.

8. Check Your Chain:

Make sure each word follows the rule. If they don’t connect properly, go back and try again.

Example Word Chain:

1. Start with the word: cat

2. Last letter: t

3. Next word: tiger

4. Last letter of tiger: r

5. Next word: rabbit

6. Last letter of rabbit: t

7. Next word: turtle

8. Final chain: cat → tiger → rabbit → turtle

Practice:

Encourage students to create their own word chains by picking a starting word and following the steps above. This makes it fun and helps improve their vocabulary!
