Identify compound words in sentences

We find the word made of two smaller words in each sentence and split it.

• 20: "houseboat" is made of "house" and "boat".
• 21: "raindrop" is made of "rain" and "drop".
• 22: "lighthouse" is made of "light" and "house".
• 23: "doorbell" is made of "door" and "bell".
• 24: "barnyard" is made of "barn" and "yard".
• 25: "bedroom" is made of "bed" and "room".
• 26: "snowflakes" is made of "snow" and "flakes".

Match definitions to vocabulary words

We analyze the meaning of each definition to choose the correct word.

• 27: "to make something bigger" matches "enlarge" (prefix "en-" means to make, "large" means big).
• 28: "to like one thing more than another" matches "prefer".
• 29: "feeling good about something you did" matches "proud".
