The Mummy's Curse - Session 18 - Word Workshop
English Resource Description
The "Word Workshop" from "The Mummy's Curse" session 18 is an educational exercise designed to enhance vocabulary and language skills among KS2 students. Each word presented in the workshop is explored in various ways to deepen understanding and usage. Students are asked to define the word, use it in a meaningful sentence, and then modify it by adding prefixes, suffixes, or changing its form. Additionally, they are encouraged to identify synonyms and antonyms to further expand their lexical range. This multifaceted approach not only reinforces the meaning of each word but also offers insight into its practical application and versatility in language.
Words such as 'appearance', 'luminous', 'suspended', and 'infinite' are among the many terms students will engage with. For each word, the workshop prompts learners to consider its class, such as noun, verb, adjective, or adverb. By examining words in this structured manner, students gain a comprehensive understanding of not just individual terms, but also their broader linguistic context. The workshop is an effective tool for fostering a robust vocabulary, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the nuances of the English language.
