From meaning to word
Think about definitions related to tree, star, gift, bell, ornament, light. Count each answer’s letters and use crossings to distinguish possibilities. A word on the right theme is correct only if it answers the actual clue.
After the activity
Design an ornament from two geometric shapes and explain how you would repeat its pattern in a garland. Connect Christmas vocabulary with decorations and scenes that participants can interpret in their own way.
Check the form of the answer
Check singular or plural and letter count as well as meaning. Follow the activity’s convention for spaces, accents and other marks. When an answer will not fit, check its crossings too: the difficult clue may not be where the mistake began.
