This hard sheet focuses on applying compound word meanings. Part A's four multiple-choice questions ask what 'doorbell' means, which word completes 'water + ___', and which pair forms a real compound. Part B has five fill-in-the-blank questions that build new compounds from parts like 'water + fall', 'air + plane', and the missing half of 'snowman'. Second graders combine meaning, spelling, and reasoning to finish strong.
