 ANAGRAMS


 An anagram is a play on words created by rearranging the letters of the original
words to make a new word or phrase. Anagrams can be fun and witty. We can
often find examples of anagrams in everyday life.
For example, state - taste, dusty - study, save - vase, thing - night, etc.
 Group Activity : Divide the class in four groups. The first group finds out
anagrams of 3 letters, the second group finds out anagrams of 4 letters, the third
and fourth group finds out anagrams of 4 and 5 letters respectively in the given
time. The group which collects maximum anagrams in given time will be the winner.
 Individual Activity : Make anagrams of the following words. Remember an
anagram contains exactly the same letters no more no less only, in a different order.
• ten • dairy • glean • former • auctioned • listen • allergy • funeral • teacher • dormitory
