Synonyms 1 (A + B) - September 09, 2019
Paid LessonLesson Collection #4 - Lesson 4a
The object here is to have fun students build their vocabulary.
How many of your students can offer two synonyms for the word BIG or NEAR or RICH?
Here are a few synonyms for big:
large
huge
enormous
gigantic
monstrous
Students, in pairs or groups, assist each other to find synonyms for common English words. The object is to think of three synonyms for each of the 16 adjectives printed on the worksheet. Along the way, they'll be adding new words to their vocabulary and working with spelling as well.
There are two worksheets, Synonyms 1A and Synonyms 1B. Each worksheet has 16 common adjectives. Finding synonyms (with or without a dictionary) for these worksheets can immeasurably improve students' vocabulary. As a competitive lesson, 'Synonyms 1' is a lot of fun.
There are eight additional Synonyms lessons. They are:
Synonyms 1A - Continued (See Lesson 04b below)
Synonyms 1B - Continued (See Lesson 04c below)
Synonyms 2 (A + B)(See Lesson 04d below)
Synonyms 2A - Continued (See Lesson 04e below)
Synonyms 2B - Continued (See Lesson 04f below)
Synonyms 3 (A + B) (See Lesson 4g below)
Synonyms 3A - Continued (See Lesson 4h below) -and-
Synonyms 3B - Continued (See Lesson 04i below).
What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.
