Description
A kangaroo word is a word that contains all the letters of its own synonym, with the letters already placed in the correct order, but not necessarily adjacent to each other. For example, the word ‘masculine‘ has the synonym ‘male’ inside. The shorter synonym contained with the ‘kangaroo word’ is called a joey because a joey is carried inside a kangaroo’s pouch. So ‘male’ is a joey of the kangaroo word ‘masculine’.
Kangaroo Snatch is a fun way to introduce and practise new vocabulary as well as synonyms.
