This last month, I started teaching a vocabulary intervention group and I thought I'd share a quick activity that my students enjoyed!
Part of this intervention time has been spent working with dictionary and thesaurus skills. To put some of our skills to work, we took nursery rhymes and altered them by finding synonyms to replace some of the more 'boring' words within them. Students then created a poster showing their new-and-improved nursery rhyme renditions.
They looked good and gave students a chance to use their thesaurus skills. A win-win!

On a slightly unrelated note, if you are planning ahead for St. Patrick's day, I have a couple of freebies in my TPT store for both primary and upper elementary. Click on the picture to see these holiday themed math freebies.
I hope that you have a wonderful week!
Such a fun idea for synonym use! Thank you for sharing it and your freebies. :)
