  1. By Angelica Noelle Jamieson BTW You are taking notes

  2. What in the world is that? Anagrams are words or phrases that are formed by rearranging the letters of another word or phrase.

  3. Some special anagrams don't even require rearrangement! You just add/remove spaces and punctuation! For instance, have you ever noticed that The IRS always thinks that your stuff is theirs?  *Just So You Know ;)

  4. The word ANAGRAM comes from the roots ANA, meaning new, back, or again, and GRAM, meaning letter(s). P.S. Maybe these 2 roots should be on our quiz on Friday! Roots!

  5. Anti-grams are anagrams whose interpretation are considered ironic, or opposite of the subject. How would one describe FUNERAL? I don't think the right answer would be REAL FUN. Anti-grams

  6. One word Anagrams A single word is anagrammed into another single word. A mother's first thought when a teenager brings up CARS is usually SCAR.

  7. More Special Anagrams! Some anagrams are created perfectly by reversing the order of the letters. Mommy, I really SAW him! He WAS right here!

  8. Why would they be in literature? You might be saying, "Sure they're fun in games like scrabble, but how and why would they be used in literature?" When a poet uses anagrams, it is genius and spontaneous! Also, anagrams often carry hidden messages. Clint Eastwood-> Old West Action. They are really funny and creative. 

  9. Whoever can find the most anagrams in the lyrics of Anagrams by Rush at the end of class gets candy. :) Activity

  10. The End Thank you Amazing Anagrams- BOAT #4; Internet Anagram Server; Anagram Genius; Dictionary Reference; and Mrs. Anderson's 6th period class! I appreciate all of the help!

  11. Support the Wagner family! ...Together we find a cure...
