English Resource Description
The "Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 10 - Word Workshop" is an educational resource designed to enhance the vocabulary of KS2 students. In this session, students are encouraged to explore various words through multiple exercises. Each word is examined for its meaning, usage in a sentence, and possible modifications by adding prefixes, suffixes, or changing its form. Additionally, students are tasked with identifying synonyms and antonyms for each word, aiding in their understanding of the language and expanding their word bank.
Words such as 'expensive', 'warped', 'foreboding', and 'instinct' are dissected to understand their nuances and applications in different contexts. The workshop also delves into words like 'tragically', 'implied', 'overwhelmed', and 'imagine', prompting students to think critically about their meanings and opposite terms. By engaging with this diverse set of words, including 'observations', 'rummaging', and 'novelty', students are equipped with the tools to communicate more effectively and comprehend more complex texts. The session is an invaluable part of building literacy skills and fostering a love for language.
