Five minute starter/word play
 
Here is a five minute starter/filler for your ss.

1) Match up the word with its definition  2) What have they all got in common?


 1. Banana              a) a vegetable
2. Dresser        b) revitalise
3. Grammar        c) evaluate
4. Potato                d) a fruit
5. Revive        e) mismatched
6. Uneven        f) a table
7. Assess       g) language     patterns

Did you get it? Take the first letter and put it at the end of the word, then read it backwards. They still spell the same!
