Hi, letter detective. Are we pleased to see you!
You’ve guessed it. We have another challenge we need your help to solve. Are you ready?
Here are the first two letters of a word:
ba __
What could the last letter be?
We could use g to make bag, or a t to make bat.
Can you think of any other options?
Here are the last two letters of a word:
__ en
What could the first letter be?
We could use t to make ten, or h to make hen.
We can’t use proper nouns, such as names, as answers. So we couldn’t use b for Ben, for example.
Can you think of any other options for this question?
Now let’s try one more:
Which of the following letters could complete the word below? (There may be more than one answer!)
par __
b k t l
The correct answers are k and t.
The letter k would make park and t would make part.
Now it’s your turn to find the missing letters in the questions on the next pages. Enjoy the hunt!
Goo(_) luc(_)!
