Fish Game on Nouns

The Fish Game on Nouns

Here is an interactive game to help you learn about nouns.
  • You are the fish.
  • Pop the bubbles with nouns to collect red hearts. You need five to win.
  • If a bubble with a noun reaches the top, you will lose a red heart.
  • Avoid the bubbles with other word types. If you pop one, you will lose one of your three lives.
  • Good luck!
  • The fish moves towards your clicks. (Hint: The farther the distance, the faster it moves.)
