Help with 8 year old daughter's homework!!!?

Question

She need to make words out of the word DESCRIBE.
2 five letter words, 3 six letter words, and a word missing the first two letters ending in IES. (but not cries, we got that one)
Thanks

Answer 1

DRIES! lol, took me a while too!
The five letter words: cribs, birds
six letter: brides, breeds, and scribes?
wow, that's your EIGHT year old daughter's homework??

Answer 2

Let's do the last one first:
If we have to make a word missing
the first 2 letters of DESCRIBE ending
in IES I think the only 2 possibilities are CRIES
and BRIES(varieties of BRIE, a kind of cheese).
5 letter words: DRIES, REBEC, CRIES, BRIES,
CRIBS, BEERS, BIRDS, RIBES, CREED, REEDS, BRIDE,
SIRED, DICER, SEDER.
6 letter words: SCRIBE, CREEDS, BREEDS,
REBECS, DESIRE, BRIDES, SCREED.

BTW: DRIES is not acceptable for the last
question, because one must omit the FIRST TWO
LETTERS of DESCRIBE.
Hope that helps a bit. Good luck to you and your
daughter!
