In the 'Word Workshop' for Chapter 3 of 'Kensuke's Kingdom', students delve into vocabulary enrichment through a variety of exercises. The workshop encourages learners to explore the meanings of words, use them in sentences, and experiment with linguistic modifications by adding prefixes, suffixes, or altering the word form. This approach not only enriches their vocabulary but also enhances their understanding of word classes, synonyms, and antonyms, providing a comprehensive linguistic toolkit.

For instance, students might take the word 'hurled' and discuss its meaning, place it within the context of a sentence, and then modify it to 'hurling' or 'hurled' to fit different tenses. They'll also brainstorm synonyms such as 'thrown' and antonyms like 'caught'. This pattern is repeated with other words such as 'definitely', 'massive', and 'developed', each time engaging with the language to deepen their comprehension and usage skills. By the end of the workshop, students will have expanded their vocabulary and gained a greater appreciation of the nuances of the English language.
