Build vocabulary the fun way in Grades 4 - 8! This collection of riddles will entertain your students as well as build their PSAT and ACT vocabulary. Decoding the riddles can be an impetus for incorporating dynamic words into students' lexicons and their writing.

To decode each riddle, students must identify the meaning of four vocabulary words in the riddle.
