Book excerpt: The activities in this book will help your students understand what homophones, synonyms, and antonyms are and how they can use them to strengthen their writing skills. Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings -- like the words flower and flour. Synomyms are words the have the same meaning, or nearly the same meaning -- like the words earth and world. Antonyms are words that mean the opposite of each other -- like the words day and night. Several hands-on activities for each of these three important parts of speech are included in this 48-page book. Perfect for emerging readers and writers and ESL students.
