Limited time and funds combined with a growing student case load sometimes can overwhelm speech-language pathologists and learning disabilities specialists in the school and clinical settings. Workbook for Synonyms, Homonyms, and Antonyms, an activity-filled manual that targets the concepts of synonyms, homonyms, and antonyms, no doubt will prove to be an effective resource in helping meet the demands and constraints of these busy professionals while also achieving students' language/vocabulary IEP goals.
This workbook, which is designed for the third through eighth grades, is sure to be useful also to classroom teachers and home-schooling parents as a supplement to the language-arts curriculum. Each of the three major divisions in the book is subdivided into exercises such as matching, word scrambles, rhyming riddles, crossword puzzles, and word searches that are presented in order of increasing difficulty. Activities come with easy-to-follow instructions.
These reproducible worksheets as well as specific suggestions for supplemental teaching activities help minimize preparation time, and therapists and educators can use the workbook activities to meet the needs of individual students, small groups, or the entire class. Appendices provide answers to all the exercises.
