Try another word! Synonyms posters and learning aids

This writing aid will help your students develop creative vocabulary in their work through the use of synonyms.

It can be used in a variety of ways. The engaging word clouds can be used as posters for a display, or on an interactive whiteboard during a vocabulary focused lesson.

They can be used in small groups as table centres, or by individual students as a set of bookmarks.

This is saved as a PDF and is supplemented by a separate customisable Powerpoint file. As this is a PowerPoint file, it can be shared directly with students to use on their own devices. The hyperlinked contents page will take them to the page they are looking for. At the end of the resource are the bookmarks. These can be printed, laminated and attached together so students can keep them and refer to them in all aspects of their writing.

There are blank bookmarks so you can make your own synonym bookmarks to add to your sets in the customisable file. You can also edit the whole file as you see fit to suit your own needs.

Finally, there is some bunting banner to help you make this into a display. I hope you and your students find this useful!
