The Falcon's Malteser - Session 6 - Word Workshop

The 'Word Workshop' is a structured activity designed to enhance vocabulary skills, which is a part of "The Falcon's Malteser" session 6 learning module. In this workshop, students are encouraged to explore various aspects of selected words. They delve into the meanings of the words and are tasked with using them in sentences to demonstrate their understanding. Additionally, they experiment with modifying the words by adding prefixes or suffixes, changing the number from singular to plural, or altering the verb tense to see how it impacts the word's form and usage. This exercise also includes identifying synonyms—words that share the same meaning—as well as antonyms, which are words with opposite meanings. Through this workshop, students gain a deeper grasp of language and word usage, improving their communication skills and expanding their lexicon.

The 'Word Workshop' covers a diverse set of words, each with its unique exercise sheet. For instance, students might explore the word 'assembling,' identifying its class, using it in context, and finding both its synonyms and antonyms. They could then move on to words like 'lousy,' 'instinct,' or 'rustle,' each time engaging with the language to enhance their comprehension and application. The workshop is designed to be interactive and thought-provoking, prompting students to consider the nuances of the English language. By the end of the session, they will have not only reinforced their existing knowledge but also acquired new vocabulary that can be applied in various contexts, both academic and everyday communication.
