Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 16 - Word Workshop

The "Word Workshop" is a structured activity designed to enhance vocabulary skills, featured in the "Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 16" educational material. Each workshop prompts students to delve into the intricacies of a specific word, exploring its meaning, usage in a sentence, and various modifications. Students are encouraged to add prefixes or suffixes, alter the word's form to singular or plural, or change its tense. Additionally, they are tasked with identifying synonyms—words with similar meanings—and antonyms—words with opposite meanings—to deepen their understanding of the word's context and its application in language.

This comprehensive approach to word study allows learners to engage with a range of words such as 'miraculous', 'involve', 'confess', 'casually', 'remove', 'shrieked', 'qualms', 'shrilly', 'attempt', 'intrigued', 'mockery', 'lingering', 'prejudice', 'sense', 'destroy', 'sombre', 'tremble', 'eagerly', 'reassurance', 'tentatively', 'adoration', 'occasion', 'winced', and 'embarrassment'. Each word is dissected to reveal its class, which could be a noun, verb, adjective, or adverb. The workshop is designed to be interactive and reflective, encouraging students to consider the nuances of the English language and to expand their vocabulary repertoire in a thoughtful and engaging manner.
