Tombful of Trouble - Session 1 - Word Workshop

The "Tombful of Trouble - session 1 Word Workshop" is an engaging and educational activity designed by KS2Gems in 2022, aimed at enhancing vocabulary skills among students. In this session, participants are provided with a structured worksheet that prompts them to explore various aspects of selected words. The workshop requires students to define the meaning of each word, use it in a sentence to demonstrate understanding, and then modify the word by adding prefixes, suffixes, or changing its form. Additionally, learners are encouraged to think critically by identifying synonyms and antonyms, further expanding their language proficiency and comprehension.

Each worksheet in the "Tombful of Trouble - session 1 Word Workshop" focuses on a specific word, guiding students through a series of tasks that include categorising the word by its class, such as noun, verb, or adjective. This comprehensive approach not only helps in memorising new vocabulary but also fosters an appreciation for the nuances of the English language. By engaging with words like 'nauseous', 'proposed', 'accompany', and 'research', students deepen their lexical knowledge and are better prepared to express themselves with clarity and variety in both written and spoken communication.
