The Hodgeheg - Session 2 - Word Workshop

The Hodgeheg - session 2 WORD WORKSHOP is an engaging educational activity designed to enhance the vocabulary of KS2 students. Through this workshop, pupils explore various words, their meanings, and usage in sentences. They are encouraged to modify words by adding prefixes or suffixes, converting between plural and singular forms, or changing the verb tense. This not only helps in understanding the words but also in grasping the nuances of the English language.

Additionally, students delve into the world of synonyms and antonyms, expanding their linguistic repertoire. For instance, they might examine the word 'deafening', identifying its word class, and finding other words with similar meanings, such as 'thunderous'. They would also explore antonyms to understand words that convey opposite meanings. This comprehensive approach to vocabulary building not only aids in developing a more robust lexicon but also sharpens their grammatical skills and comprehension of context. The workshop is a valuable tool for fostering a deeper appreciation and mastery of language among young learners.
