Instructional Ideas

  • Assign this for homework or as a warm up
  • Invite learners to work together to complete the worksheet and then write a few original sentences using other synonyms they can think of

Classroom Considerations

  • Since the exercise does not describe what a synonym is, you'll need to cover that beforehand

Pros

  • Provides information on what an adjective is as well as a word bank full of synonyms

Cons

  • None
