English Resource Description

For the word 'blazed', students would explore its meaning, use it in a sentence, and experiment with modifying the word through various grammatical changes.

Similar exercises are conducted with a variety of words including 'reflected', 'disbelief', 'astonished', 'ignored', and 'imprisoned', among others. Each term is dissected to understand its class, meaning, and how it can be altered by adding prefixes, suffixes, or changing its form.
