Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 19 - Word Workshop
English Resource Description
The "Letters from the Lighthouse - Session 19 - Word Workshop" is an engaging and educational activity designed to enhance vocabulary skills. In this session, students are encouraged to explore various words, their meanings, and their usage in sentences. They are also tasked with modifying each word by adding prefixes or suffixes, changing the verb tense, or altering the word to its plural or singular form. The workshop further enriches students' understanding of language by asking them to identify synonyms—words with similar meanings—and antonyms—words with opposite meanings—for each given term.
Words such as 'rapidly', 'damaged', and 'heart-breaking' are just a few examples from the workshop. Students will delve into the nuances of each word, learning how to use them effectively in different contexts. For instance, they might explore how 'rapidly' can be transformed into 'more rapidly' or 'less rapidly' to adjust the intensity of the adverb. Similarly, they might discuss how 'damaged' can become 'undamaged' as its antonym, or find synonyms like 'broken' or 'impaired'. This workshop not only broadens vocabulary but also sharpens grammatical skills, providing a comprehensive approach to language learning.
